Redclaw Yabby (Crawfish) Pasta Sauce image

We've been catching plenty of yabbies for the past few days and this is a recipe I came up with to use some of them. I started the sauce, then let it simmer while I cooked spiral pasta for the two of us. This sauce was really good as it didn't overpower the delicate sweetness of the yabbies.

Time 40m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 teaspoons oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
3 tablespoons tomato paste
1/2 cup wine
3/4 cup light cream
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon chicken stock powder (or a cube)
1 teaspoon dried basil
fresh ground black pepper
400 g raw crawfish meat (yabby)
1/4 cup sun-dried tomato, sliced
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons snipped fresh chives

Steps:

  • heat the oil and cook the onion and garlic gently until softened-about 5 minutes.
  • Add the tomato paste and stir for about 30 seconds, then add the wine and cook about a minute more.
  • Add the cream, water, stock powder, basil and black pepper.
  • Bring to the boil then reduce the heat and simmer about 10 minutes.
  • Add the yabby meat and sundried tomatoes and cook for 2-3 minutes-or until yabbies are just cooked through.
  • Remove from the heat and stir through the parmesan cheese and chives.
  • Serve over pasta with extra parmesan if you like.
