SPAGHETTI AL CARTOCCIO - (SPAG COOKED IN A BAG)



Spaghetti Al Cartoccio - (Spag Cooked in a Bag) image

This sounds so good! Posting here to keep safe until I have some good seafood on hand. From Terry Durack, who also suggests turning it Asian by subbing hokkien or udon noodles for the spag, and instead of the tomato sauce a quick stir fry of garlic, chili and ginger, with a dash each of fish sauce, white wine and sweet chili. Mix with the seafood, put in the bag and bake 15 mins. So there's 2 recipes : )

400 g canned chopped tomatoes
50 ml white wine
1 pinch dried oregano
1 pinch dried chili
1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 anchovy fillets, chopped

  • Drain, toss with the sauce, and divide between the 2 bags. Add the prawns and clams and fold and scrunch the tops to make a tight seal.
  • Put them on a tray and bake for 15 minutes.
  • To serve, tip the bag contents onto a plate and scatter with the parsley and drizzle with a little extra virgin olive oil.
