method

Let’s make something delicious

  • Step one

    Add a small glug of oil to a pan and toast the breadcrumbs, stirring occasionally until gold. Remove from the heat and stir in a pinch of parsley. Set aside.

  • Step two

    Cook the pasta according to the instructions on pack, until just al dente. While the pasta is cooking, heat the remaining oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry the garlic for around a minute, until fragrant and soft. Sprinkle in the chilli flakes, flat leaf parsley and oyster sauce. Add a dash of the pasta water to the pan and bring to a simmer to emulsify into a sauce.

  • Step three

    Add the cooked pasta to the pan, followed by the crayfish.  Gently toss together, then spoon into bowls and top with the breadcrumbs. Get stuck in!
