Spaghetti: You may use up to 200 g spaghetti.
Chili peppers: You may add some more if you like it hotter.
Sardines: You may add some more sardines e. g. if your can of sardines holds more than 80 g.
You may reheat any leftovers in the microwave. Attention: the spaghetti tend to get dry when stored for hours - so add some oil or cream before serving any reheated spaghetti.
