Ingredients:

  • 1 packet of Woolworths Frozen Mussels with garlic & herb butter
  • Fresh hake fillet
  • 1 x cube of Woolworths prepared garlic and chilli 
  • 2 T olive oil 
  • 2 x 400 g cans Woolworths Smoky Chipotle & Tomato Soup 
  • 350g – 500 g pappardelle pasta, cooked 
  • Cream, to serve 
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to season
  • Finely chopped parsley, to garnish

Method:

  1. Start by steaming the mussels: add half of the butter to a large shallow pan that has a lid and pour out the frozen, half-shelled mussels. Cover with the lid and leave to simmer according to package instructions, stirring every now and then. Remove the mussels and keep aside. 
  2. Add the remaining garlic butter from the box and fry cubes of fresh hake fillet, add a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of smoked paprika, fry until cooked through.
  3. Remove the hake from the pan when cooked and set aside. Pour the pan juices over the fish. 
  4. Fry the chilli and garlic in the olive oil in the same large pan to keep all of those delicious flavours.
  5. Add the cans of chipotle & tomato soup (or regular canned tomato soup) and simmer for 5 minutes; stir in a dash of cream and season.
  6. Fold the hot cooked pasta to coat in the sauce. Serve hot with mussels and spiced fish. Eat while warm.
