Sardinian Lobster Spaghetti image

This recipe is very similar to that served at L'Oasi restaurant in the Costa Smeralda region of Sardinia, Italy. The simple sauce can be also made with shrimp, prawns or crab instead of the lobster, or even on it's own!

1 garlic clove, Peeled And Minced
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup brandy (Or Vermouth Or Dry White Wine)
1 (14 ounce) can crushed imported tomatoes

  • Heat the butter in a saucepan, and once sizzling add the onion and garlic.

  • Add the tomatoes, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes if using, and half the parsley. Cook for about 20 minutes or until thickened.
  • Stir in just enough of the heavy cream to turn the sauce a dark coral pink color. Stir in the lobster meat, and keep warm.
