Easy
Published 2009
This “saucily” sauced Neapolitan pasta dish is named after the “ladies of the night” who, according to legend, used it to seduce their clients. Though I cannot guarantee its aphrodisiac qualities, I think it will undoubtedly make whomever you serve this pasta to quite happy. My wife certainly is when I make it!
