Seafood pasta
Another one of Waitrose's recipes. I had the urge to cook it after eating the marinari at Picasso last saturday. I wanted to compare a tomato based seafood pasta with a garlic butter based one. Fry garlic with butter, add in diced spring onions and chilli. Add in your seafood selection. I used a mixture of haddock, prawns, crab sticks and mussels. Cook for a few minutes till the seafood is piping hot. Place cooked spaghetti on top and mix well. Serve with parsley and black pepper.
Conclusion: I think I prefer the tomato based seafood pasta as the taste is richer with the tomatoes and white wine. This is fine as well, its just that the taste is not as complex. Furthermore, do not use wholewheat spaghetti with this dish as the taste of the pasta itself will overwhelm the garlic butter sauce. [M's view and I concur]
