Spaghetti with shrimps in creamy sauce
Let's start, as they say, from the beginning and master the basic recipe for making cream sauce, and at the same time, spaghetti. Believe me, this recipe is very simple, and the result is unexpectedly spectacular! Ingredients:
- Packing of spaghetti:
- Shrimp packing (300 g);
- A glass of fatty cream;
- Garlic.
Preparation:Peel three cloves of garlic and chop them very finely. Defrost and peel the shrimp. Now take a roasting pan, put it on the fire and pour a tablespoon of vegetable oil into it, let it heat up and put in the garlic. Fry the garlic only lightly. As soon as the garlic smells, put the shrimp in the pan and fry them until lightly browned. Next, open the package of cream and simply pour it into the roasting pan. Add salt and pepper to your taste, reduce the heat and leave the roasting pan with the lid open - let the sauce evaporate. In the meantime, boil the spaghetti. Do you know how to cook spaghetti correctly? To do this, you first need to boil the water. Then add a little salt to the boiling water, pour in a spoonful of vegetable oil and put in the spaghetti. If the pasta is too long, then you need to lower it gradually, holding the bundle of spaghetti in your hands. Lower the lower part of the bundle into the pan and begin to press the pasta lightly onto the bottom. Under the influence of hot water, the spaghetti will begin to soften and easily fall into the pan. As soon as all the pasta is placed in the water, stir it with a spoon and leave to cook. Spaghetti is considered ready when it is no longer tough, but not yet very soft. As a rule, spaghetti is ready already mixed with the sauce. So, throw the cooked pasta into a colander, let the water drain and put it on a dish or arrange it in portions on plates. Pour the sauce on top and you get spaghetti with shrimps in a creamy sauce. Here is such a basic recipe. It would not be superfluous to season this dish with aromatic grated cheese. If you really want to go for the Italian way, it should be hard Parmesan cheese.
