Ingredients :

 

  • 1 packet of tagliatelle
  • 16 mussels over-boiled with their shells
  • 16 raw shrimps with their shells
  • 4 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 2 trimmed cloves of garlic
  • 1 tablespoon of paprika or red pepper
  • 1,5 lt of warm fish broth
  • A glass of ouzo
  • A glass of white wine
  • A glass of fresh crème
  • Some chopped, fresh parsley
  • Salt and pepper

  

 Method :

 

In a fry pan for paella or in a similar, wide cooking vessel boil the olive oil up. Then pour the garlic and the shrimps and stir them until they get a slight red color. Then add the mussels and the paprika. Light up with the ouzo, quench with the white wine and let them be cooked slowly for 5 minutes. Add the fresh crème and let them stay for 4-5 minutes more. In a pan, simmer the fish broth without the pot lit for about 10 minutes. Then add the tagliatelle in and let them be boiled for about 7-8 minutes. When the pasta is ready you can strain it and mix them with the seafood. Add salt and pepper and serve with the fresh, chopped parsley.
