In a frying pan, brown the garlic clove in 4-5 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil. Remove the garlic, add the anchovies and let them dissolve over a low flame. Add the sun-dried tomatoes and fry for a few moments.

Drain the stroncatura and pour it into the pan with the anchovies and the sun-dried tomatoes, add the chopped parsley and mix well for a minute.
