Shrimp Mushroom Alfredo

A little heavy, but delicious.

This recipe is for 2 people.

Ingredients

• 85 gram (3 oz) tagliatelle
• 150 gr (around 5 oz) mushrooms
• 100 gr (around 4 oz) shrimp
• 1 clove minced garlic
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (a little more for decorating)
• 2 1/2 tbsps butter
• Olive oil
• Salt, black pepper,cayenne pepper
• Vinegar (optional)
• Mint or parsley (optional)

Preparation

Cook pasta first according to the instructions on the package. Spare 1/4 cup of pasta water. Marinete shripms with salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper and vinegar about 15 minutes. Put olive oil in a pan and cook marinated shrimps until they get pink. Set aside the shrimp for now. I only had baby shripms, but it is better if you use  jumbo ones.

Then put 2 tbs butter in a pan and add sliced mushrooms and minced garlic, cook until mushrooms turn into brown.

Then add heavy cream, salt, and black pepper, and cook couple of minutes. Add the rest of the butter and  parmesan, cook until they mixed well.

Add cooked pasta and pasta water into the mix and cook couple of minutes more until it reaches a good texture.

You can garnish with parsley and parmesan. I did not have parsley, so  I used fresh mint.

Enjoy!

Fish Tacos

This recipe is for 4 tacos.

Ingredients

• 4 tortillas
• 180 gram any kind of fish, I used sea bream
• 1 ts cumin
• 1 ts cayene pepper
• 1 ts garlic powder
• 1 ts black pepper
• 1 ts red flare pepper
• 1/2 lemon juice
• Olive oil

For the cole slaw

• 1 cup of shredded cabbage 
• 1 cup of shredded red cabbage
• 1 fresh onion (optional)
• Pickles (optional)
• 1/4 cup of chopped parsley
• 2 tbs mayo
• 1 tbs Greek yogurt
• 1 tbs apple cider vinegar
• 1/2 ts salt
• 1 dessert spoon mustard
• 1 clove of garlic (minced)

Preparation

 You can use any type of fish you like for this recipe. I have used whole seabream and baked in the oven at 400F about 10-15 minutes.

Then, I took out the bones and made small pieces out of it. But if you prefer fillet you can skip this part and directly marinate the fish with all the spices listed and lemon juice. Wait about 15 minutes.

In the meantime you can prepare the cole slaw. Mix all the ingredients in a bowl, cover it with a plastic wrap and keep in the fridge at least 15 minutes. It will be better if you make it the day before.

Put some olive oil on the pan and heat it. Cook fish until it is crispy. This will take longer if you don't bake it beforehand.

Heat tortillas on a pan, first put cole slaw on it, then fish. I garnished it with fresh mint, you can also use parsley or dill.

Enjoy!
