Hi everyone. Today I enjoy making this lovely pasta dish. For a seafood lover like me its a really yummy plate.
Ingredients
- tagliatelle pasta
- 1/4 of a butternut squash
- 1/4 onion
- Mix of fresh herbs (basil, parsley, dill)
- 1 carrot
- Celery q.b.
- Salt and pepper
- Mussels
- Extra-virgin olive oil
- White wine q.b.
Procedures
Let’s start cooking the butternut squash in a pan with the herbs, onion, and carrots for about ten minutes, adding a bit bit of water from time to time.
Put now the salty water on the hob for the pasta.
In a different pan put some extra-virgin olive oil with a garlic clove and the mussels. When they to start to open add the white wine.
When the butternut squash mix is ready, blist it in the blender with a bit of cooking water from the pasta and extra-virgin olive oil for giving it the right consistency and brightness.
Remove from the shell the mussels, but keep a few with the shell to be used as decoration. Put them in the pan with the cooked pasta and a couple spoons of the butternut squash puree.
Mix everything well together with a little bit of water from cooking the pasta and dish it up.
I hope all of you enjoy this lovely dish…
Ciao!!!
