A quick and easy meal to make, flavorsome and delicious.
This recipe comes from my grandmother and we would only have it in France because we could find sea food in the supermarkets in France but not in England.
Not long ago, I saw that they were available so made this recipe straight away because it is one of my favorite dishes.
The recipe is super simple and can be changed however you like, for example, instead of the mascarpone, you could use crème fraîche or coconut milk and you could easily leave out the spring onion or the lemon.
This recipe is done in under 20 minutes.
Ingredients - Serves 4
2 shallots, chopped finely
2 cloves of garlic, crushed
around 16 surimi sticks, cut into thin slices
about 120 grams of mascarpone / creme fraiche
1/2 a lemon
3 courgettes
drizzle of olive oil
salt & pepper
paprika
400 grams linguine
Parmesan cheese
a spring onion to garnish
Recipe
Start off by spiralizing the courgettes in either a food processor or a spiralizer.
Next, place a little olive oil in a pan and cook the shallot until lucid and then add in the crushed garlic + the spiralized courgette + salt & pepper + paprika. Add in a little water to cook the courgette and cook for 10 minutes while you cook the linguine.
Speaking of which, cook the linguine in salted water, following the packet's instructions and then drain.
Add the surimi to the cooked courgette and drain the excess water in the saucepan before adding the mascarpone + lemon juice & zest.
Add in the drained linguine to the pan along with a little grated Parmesan cheese and more mascarpone if needed.
Serve and garnish with a little spring onion and grated Parmesan cheese.
