Who would've thought it would be a happy marriage? Well, certainly not me!
The first time I heard of Pasta Zanmai, I thought it was ridiculous! I'm a huge fan of Sushi Zanmai but it never crossed my mind to give their fusion sister a try.
Not until one day when I had to meet some friends there for lunch.
"....Imagine Carbonara with its usual creaminess topped with raw salmon sashimi slices, ikura and shimeji mushrooms..."
I fell in love!! OMG. Who is this genius?? I mean seriously...Carbonara plus Sashimi? I love it!
Anyways, when a friend told me to try Mentaiko (Cod Roe) with Pasta, I jumped onto it immediately!
This is the Easiest...Laziest... Yummiest dinner up to date! :D
Mentaiko & Seaweed Pasta |
For those of you who don't know how Mentaiko looks like, this is how it looks and you can get it at the Japanese grocer in their freezer section:
Ingredients
Mentaiko (remove the membrane and scoop out the roes)
Japanese Seaweed Powder
Pasta of any kind (I love Penne!)
Salt & Pepper
Optional: Hard-boiled eggs for extra protein
Step 1: Cook pasta as per packaging instructions. Drain, add salt & pepper and put aside. (Do not drain your pasta in cold water)
Step 2: While pasta is still hot, add Mentaiko, Japanese Seaweed Powder and hard-boiled eggs.
Step 3: Serve!
Superrrr easy and sooo yummm. Perfect dinner on a super lazy day. Dinner was ready in less than 30 minutes!
Hope you like this one! Enjoy! :D
