Cooking Instructions
1.
Add 5L of
Water (20 3/4 cups)
to a large pot and put it on a medium-high heat in preparation to cook your pasta.
2.
Put a large pan on medium heat and add a generous drizzle of
Extra-Virgin Olive Oil (3 Tbsp)
. Once the oil starts to warm, add finely chopped
Garlic (1 clove)
and gently stir, letting it simmer for approximately 30 seconds.
3.
Add the cubes of
Zucchini (1)
and cook them for around 10 minutes or until they begin to soften.
4.
Add the
Porcini Mushrooms (1 handful)
to your pan, letting the flavours and juices infuse. Stir using a wooden spoon and you will notice the oil start to thicken into a creamy consistency.
5.
Once the water in the pot starts to boil, dissolve 2 pinches of
Sea Salt (to taste)
and add a packet
Orecchiette Pasta (1 lb)
. Cook for 17 minutes.
6.
A few minutes before the pasta is ready, add fresh
Shrimp (10.5 oz)
to the zucchini and porcini mix, cooking slowly for just a few minutes. Sprinkle
Fresh Parsley (to taste)
on top and mix through before adding a small handful of fresh
Breadcrumbs (1 handful)
and some
Chili Oil (to taste)
.
7.
Strain the pasta and add it to the pan with the sauce, using a little bit of the pasta water to help the sauce and the pasta combine. Mix well and serve with more breadcrumbs and parsley.
