Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil

I found that the sauce was a bit too thick for my taste. I would recommend adding a little bit of milk or cream to thin it out.

This dish is a bit spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper if you don't like spicy food.
