Sophia Loren is a lady after my own heart. Gwyneth Paltrow and her anti pasta views can get stuffed!
Ok so I love pasta.... us brits are use to eating stogy pasta with lots of tomato sauce. This recipe is clean and fresh and although it look really simple it packs an almighty punch.
What you will need for two.
200g of spaghetti or fetuccine
150ml white wine
500g grams of clams
2 garlic cloves
Handful of flat leaf parsley
Olive oil
1-2 dried chillies
salt and pepper
Firstly get some water on to boil for your pasta. Give your clams a good clean and throw out any that stay open after you give them a sharp tap.
This is a really fast dish so have everything prepped and ready to go. Get your pasta on to boil. About 5 minutes before your pasta is ready. Pour a couple of glugs of olive oil in a hot pan, add your garlic and chillies, stir around until your garlic starts to colour. Now add in your wine and tip in your clams. Pop a lid on your pan and give a good shake. The clams will open in about 3 - 4 minutes.
Drain your pasta and add it to our pan with your clams, toss in your parsley and give a good stir so the pasta can soak up som of the yummy sauce.
Serve immediately with lemon and bread to soak up the juices. Buon Appetito!
