wholemeal spaghetti whit fish
A light and incredibly tasty plate of spaghetti, very good if you are on a diet but also a great way to impress your guests. The wholemeal pasta in my opinion has an excellent flavor and is difficult to over cook. Fresh shrimps and baby octopus. When the fish is fresh you do not need anything else! Absolutely no tomatoes and no cream, quite frankly I rarely use the cream in pasta … very rarely! , just a drop of wine and fresh parsley. Believe me when I ate it I felt transported to a taverna in the port of Sorrento!
Ingredients for 2 people
200 grams wholemeal spaghetti
200 grams shrimps (mazzancolla in Italian)
200 grams baby octopus
2 tablespoons lemon juice
½ glass of wine
butter
1 garlic
evo oil
½ dried chili
Zest of 1 lemon
Parsley
salt
How it works:
In a pan fry the garlic (dressed), chili, butter and evo oil. Pour the wine and let it evaporate for 1 minute, add the octopus and the finely chopped parsley. Cover the pan and cook for 7 minutes. Add the lemon juice and remove the garlic . Cook the pasta al dente, drain and keep a little cooking water. Pour the pasta into the pan and add the shrimp , salt and ¼ of a glass of the cooking water. Cook for 3 minutes, when the shrimp are cooked, serve with the rest of the chopped parsley and lemon peel.
