Pasta Con Vongole E Bottarga

A traditional Italian dish, Pasta con Vongole e Bottarga is a delightful combination of pasta with clams and bottarga (cured fish roe).

Ingredients - Serves 4

Cook the spaghetti in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente.
While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant.
Add the clams to the pan and pour in the white wine. Cover and cook until the clams open, about 5-7 minutes.
Drain the pasta, reserving some of the pasta water. Add the pasta to the pan with the clams and toss to combine.
Add the grated bottarga and some of the reserved pasta water if needed. Cook for a further 2 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
