  • 100 grams tomato pure

Instructions

  • Make a cut on the back of the mantis shrimp to get it ready. Cut the shrimp into pieces if it is too large. Place aside.
  • Taro roots should be washed and peeled. Boil till soft in water.
    Taro in the water should be removed and kept aside. Cook your pasta in the water until it is al dente. Visit "How to cook and tell if your spaghetti is al dente?" if you're unsure.
  • The crushed garlic with the peel on and the finely chopped spring onion should be sautéed in a large skillet with warm extra virgin olive oil.
    Add the tomatoes and tomato puree once the garlic and onion are tender. Turn the heat down. For 3 to 4 minutes, simmer.
  • Add the basil leaves, salt, dried chile, Shaoxing wine, and shrimp. Stir a little while simmering on low heat.
    Taro roots should be quartered and added to the pan. Stirring continues.
  • Pasta should be cooked, then the water should be saved. Add a tiny bit of the saved water, around half a ladle, to achieve more moisture. Remix the ingredients and add seasoning to taste.
  • Serve with garnish of fresh basil leaves.
