Rika cooked this light and yummy dish dressed with homemade tomato sauce :) Instead of canned tomatoes we used fresh ones and added prawns and scallops to it!
Recipe:
Seafood Pasta (Serves 4)
Ingredients:
450g pasta
2 tbsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic, crushed
450g fresh scallops (Or 250g scallops and 200g prawns)
salt and ground black pepper
2 tbsp chopped fresh basil
For the sauce2 tbsp olive oil
½ onion, minced
1 clove garlic, crushed
½ tsp salt
2 x 400g cans plum tomatoes
Method:
1. For the sauce, heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan. Add the onion, garlic and a little salt, and cook over a medium heat for about 5 minutes until just softened, stirring occasionally.
2. Add the tomatoes, with their juice, and crush with a fork. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
3. Cook the pasta in plenty of boiling salted water, according to the instructions on the packet, until al dente.
4. Meanwhile, combine the oil and garlic in another non-stick frying pan and cook until just sizzling. Add the scallops and ½ tsp salt and cook over a high heat, tossing until the scallops and prawns are cooked through.
5. Add the cooked seafood to the tomato sauce. Season with salt and pepper, stir and keep warm.
6. Drain the pasta well and place in a large serving dish. Add the sauce and the basil and toss thoroughly. Serve immediately.
