(spaghetti with clams) .
.
Ingredients for the sauce: chopped shallots, garlic, fennel, chillies, fresh parsley.
.
All the above ingredients shallow fried in extra virgin olive oil until soft and the shallots translucent. .
I then added the clams to the pan (rinsed first in cold water to make sure they shut before cooking) and also a little extra boiling water.
.
Simmered for a few minutes until the clams all opened.
.
Then added the pre-cooked and rinsed( to get rid of the starchiness) wheatfree/ gluten free spaghetti into the sauce.
.
Finally more extra virgin olive oil and fresh parsley leaves.
.
Yummy, healthy, simple and quick.

Its all about the flavours.

My birthday cake! And lobster dinner
Saturday night dinner entertaining
My supper party last night was a gaspacho starter with added chopped cucumber and croutons to add texture to the cold soup.
Then this home-cooked paella.
The rice was cooked in shellfish stock (lobster, mussels, chicken, garlic and onions in the vegetable water stock), and chicken thighs roasted first with crispy skin, chorizo, prawns, mussels, squid, and some sliced peppers to decorate.
I served it with a green salad.
Cheeses and strawberries and cream for pud.

A low-carb, wheat-free recipe for crab pasta using spiralized courgettes instead of spaghetti
Spiralize the courgettes.
Then saute in coconut oil or olive oil some onion, garlic, chopped red chillies, adding salt and pepper until soft and translucent.
Then finally add the spiralized courgettes, courgette flowers, and crab meat. This only needs cooking quickly as you dont want it to go too soft or mushy.
Finish off with some parsley.
A quick and easy low csrb and protein healthy meal!
