Very simple dish
Slurp olive oil
1 onion chopped
1 clove garlic finely chopped
1 courgette grated
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 fresh tomatoes Quartered, pulp removed and sliced
Water (Pasta water is good)
1 large tablespoon Mr Heinzie's Chili and Coconut Special
(Seeing as most people won't have this
You can replace this with a good sprinkle of chili flakes)
Pasta cooked al dente in boiling salted water.
Grated Parmesan
Chopped parsley and some chopped chopped basil leaves
Saute onion till translucent, in olive oil
Add garlic, then courgette
Saute a little longer
Add tomato pulp and chili
Squash down to make a sauce
Add some water to make a good consistency
Saute 2-3 minutes
Add sliced tomato flesh
Cook just enough to warm the tomato and soften it slightly.
Add cooked pasta to pan mix well
Serve with herbs and grated Parmesan
Yum.
Late in the afternoon Silverado arrived
Geoff and Laurian had on board, two fab friends from Canada
Madelaine and Nell
They rafted up.
Didn't take long and we were over there for drinks
Mr Dale with Laurian's Uke
We were in for a treat, Geoff had caught 3 small tuna, enroute from the Bay of Islands.
He fileted it and we had Sashimi
Ceviche
Geoff and Lauarian made a tasty salsa to serve with the marinated Tuna.
Spicy and excellent
Take a good look at the white bowls while you can,When Mr Dale went out to wash them, over the transom.
Whoops, over he went, complete with bowls. Managed to save 2 but lost 2.
Never mind, (I Guess!)
It was still daylight so that was lucky!
When he was dry Laurian served
Pasta with seared tuna, with Asian flavours
Fantastic.
Geoff is a huge fan of Rick Stein and has copied down some of his favourite recipes, into this lovely book that Laurian bought for him in Venice, a few years ago.
Very classy
It was starting to get noisy
Madelaine having a good time.Geoff like all smokers, these days having to stand outside
The stargazers, once again a brilliant sky, unfortunately my little happy snappy can't capture that
Nell looking pensive and probably a bit tired... they have been full on here in NZ. Time to nuture the jet lag.So it was off to bed.
Another day today.
