Ingredients are: a bag of mussels, clams, prawns and squid (I didn't find any :( ), garlic, site wine, parsley, extra virgin olive oil, good quality passata. All seafood should be fresh bought from your local fishmonger.
Preparation:
Pour some water on to a pot with salt and leave it on the fire until it boils.
In the mean time, tip mussels and clams into the sink or a large bowl of cold water. Swish them around with your hands to wash them thoroughly. For each single mussel pull off the beards using the knife to help you if necessary – they just need a good tug. The beard is the brown wispy bit hanging out of the join in the shells. Not all mussels will have beards. take a look at the picture below if you are not sure.
Chop garlic and put into a large pot, add some olive oil, Set the pan over a medium heat for a minute.
Drain the seafood, add it to the big pot, add a little bit of white wine and cover tightly with a lid.
Leave it cooking for 5 or 10, shaking the pan from time to time.
Seafood is cooked when all the shells are opened.
In the mean time put chopped garlic and olive oil in a pan, heat it for a minute and add peeled washed prawns. Leave it there for a minutes on medium heat and then add passata.
When clams and mussels are cooked open them one by one and tip in the pan. Leave it on low/medium fire until the end and stir it a few times.
When pasta is cooked drain it and drop it to the pan with cooked seafood. Heat it on medium fire for a minute stirring it.
Add some parsley and enjoy.
