Firefly Squid and Nanohana Spaghetti
- 80 grams Spaghetti
- 80 grams Firefly squid
- 2 Nanohana
- 1 clove Garlic
- 2 Red chili peppers
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 tbsp White wine
- Remove the eyes and cartilage from the firefly squid.
- It's easier to use bone tweezers.
- Cut the nanohana into bite-sized pieces, and separate into the thick part (mostly stems) and soft part (mostly leaves).
- Cut the garlic into thick slices, and remove the core.
- Remove the seeds from the red chili peppers.
- Dissolve 8-10 g of salt in 1 liter of boiling water, and cook the spaghetti 2 minutes less than the time instructed on the package.
- Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, garlic, and red chili peppers into a cold frying pan, then heat the pan over low heat.
- Let the oil absorb the aromas.
- Remove the red chili peppers from the pan since they get burnt easily.
- When the garlic changes its colour, add the firefly squid, and briefly stir-fry.
- Add 2 tablespoons of white wine and evaporate the alcohol.
- Turn off the heat, and wait for the pasta to finish cooking.
- Cook the nanohana in the pot with the pasta.
- Cook the thick part of the nanohana for 30 seconds and the soft part for 10 seconds.
- Transfer the pasta and nanohana into the pan without draining the excess water, and gently mix for about 1 minute to let the pasta absorb the sauce.
- When the sauce starts to thicken, swirl in 1 tablespoon of olive oil at the end, and briefly stir.
- Serve on a plate, and it's done.
