or spaghetti with oil and shrimps, very tasty,

If frozen, thaw the shrimp first. Finely dice the onions and sauté in olive oil. After 1-2 minutes, add the garlic, sage leaves, and chili pepper. Decide according to your taste whether you chop individually or all three ingredients (for a more intense flavor), or add them whole to the pot. Cook the pasta al dente in plenty of salted water. Add the tomato paste to the pot with the onions and toss to coat well. Deglaze the sauce with 1 1/2 cl olive oil and a good splash of white wine. Season with salt, pepper, and oregano, and simmer gently. Add the shrimp to a pan with plenty of oil and sauté with the juice of half a lemon, but do not brown. Add the shrimp and oil to the pot and season again. Drain the pasta, add to the sauce, and fold in. Serve, garnishing with basil and shaved Parmesan cheese if desired. Note: The quantities of ingredients can be varied as desired.
