Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Using a medium-sized, preferably non-stick frying pan, gently fry the garlic in the olive oil until pale golden. Add the chilli flakes and parsley and put to one side. Boil the pasta in salted water until al dente and drain well. Introduce the crab meat to the oil/garlic/chilli/parsley mixture in the frying pan and heat through over a low light, stirring constantly. Add the pasta, turn up the temperature and toss everything together until fully mixed. Serve up at once, directly from the pan, on to very hot plates.
