Portion: Family

Ingredients:

  • 500 gr. shrimp, frozen
  • 500gr. pasta
  • 1500 ml of water
  • 1 cube of vegetables
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp. olive oil
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 sk. garlic
  • 200 g cream cheese
  • 100 ml sour cream (you can also with low fat)
  • 50 ml white wine
  • 50 gr. parmesan, grated
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • A bunch of parsley, finely chopped

Execution method:

  • We clean the shrimp, removing the head and removing the shell.
  • With the help of a small knife, carve the back of the shrimp (the back) from the tail to the head to remove the intestine.
  • Put the shrimp in a bowl and sprinkle with 2 tbsp. olive oil, salt and pepper. Stir lightly and set aside.
  • Put the shrimp heads and shells in a deep saucepan along with the vegetable cube and water. Cover and as soon as the mixture comes to a boil, simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Do not boil for more than 10 minutes because our broth will be bitter. Strain the broth into a bowl.
  • In the same pot add the spaghetti and the shrimp broth and boil the spaghetti according to the instructions on the package (not to overcook).
  • Drain, keep 250 ml of broth and set aside.
  • Put a pan on medium heat to burn and add the onions and garlic along with the butter.
  • Saute until the onion is reddish.
  • Then add the shrimp to the pan and sauté for 30 seconds.
  • Quench with the wine and let it evaporate completely.
  • Then add the cream cheese, sour cream, the broth we kept from the spaghetti and mix lightly.
  • Pour in the pasta and mix well.
  • Remove the pan from the heat, add the parsley, parmesan and pepper and season with salt if necessary.
  • Stir and serve.
