"
If i'm having seafood pasta, I don't like creamy sauces so I just chop up fresh tomatoes, fry them with a bit of garlic, few drops of lemon juice, lots of parsley then toss the seafood in. then toss the drained pasta in, cover with olive oil and then serve up.

Or with with fresh prawns, just fry up a little garlic, put a bit (or a lot) of chopped chilli, fry with cubed courgettes until they get a bit mushy, pour in a bit of chicken or vegetable stock, then the prawns. simmer for 3 mins or so.
then serve over pasta shells or something that will catch the sauce.

Or you can do anchovies and brocolli. Can of anchovies in oil, drop them in the pan while mashing them up. Then add a head of steamed brocolli, mash it up a bit and some capers in rock salt (or if using pickled capers, drain them through a few time) and serve with linguini."

Pasta sauce: For a creamy mushroom pasta sauce, fry mushrooms, garlic and onions using a little Fry Light until softened. Add a can of chopped tomatoes, and bring to the boil. Once it’s simmering again, gently stir in sweetener to taste, basil and fromage frais. Perfect with penne or poured over chicken.
