Heat the oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and fry until softened, around 7 minutes. Add the garlic, chilli powder, and anchovies and fry for another 2-3 minutes.

STEP 2

Add the chopped tomatoes and vegetable stock, stirring until the tomatoes are fully broken down and the ingredients combined. Then add the pasta and bring to the boil.
