Spread the love

Ingredients for 2 servings:

  • 250g spaghetti
  • Salt
  • 2 avocados
  • 1 lemon(s), the juice
  • 1 clove(s) garlic
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Pepper (preferably from the mill)
  • 1 chili pepper(s), red
  • 250 g shrimp(s), ready to cook
  • 3 tsp peppercorns, pickled green

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Cook the spaghetti in plenty of boiling salted water according to the package instructions until al dente. Halve the avocados lengthwise and remove the stones. Peel the avocado halves. Peel the garlic and puree it with the avocados, oil, and lemon juice using a hand blender. Season the avocado sauce with salt and pepper and transfer it to a large salad bowl. Mix the spaghetti into the sauce and let it marinate briefly. Meanwhile, halve the chili pepper lengthwise, remove the seeds, wash, and cut into thin strips. Rinse the prawns under cold water and pat dry. Mix them into the pasta with the chili strips and peppercorns. Tip: make sure the avocados aren’t too hard, otherwise it will be difficult to puree. Our hand blender once gave up trying to chop up some pretty hard avocados.
