Add soup, pasta sauce and 1 litre (4 cups) water. Stir to combine. Bring to boil. Add pasta. Stir to fully immerse pasta in liquid. Cover with lid. Gently boil, stirring every 3 minutes, for 10 minutes. Un-cover.

TIP! You can replace curly fettucine with regular fettucine, tagliatelle or linguine. We used a napoletana sauce for this recipe, however any flavoured pasta sauce can be used.
