HEART-STRENGTHENING


SEAFOOD SPAGHETTI
THIS SICILIAN DISH PACKS HEART-
HEALTHY OMEGA-3 – AN OFFER
YOU CAN’T REFUSE


METHOD
1 / In a frying pan
at half heat, cook
the chopped onion,
garlic and chilli in the
oil until soft. Boil the
fennel for five minutes
before chopping. Keep the
water aside for the pasta.
2 / Cook the anchovies,
packed with omega-3s,
with onion and add the
pine nuts, fennel and
tomatoes. Mix in the
sardines with 2tbsp of hot
water, cover and leave for
five minutes before
breaking up the fish.

METHOD
1 / Heat a frying pan until
smoking hot. Add the oil
and seasoned livers to the
pan. They’re loaded with
yawn-averting iron and
pantothenic acid, the
chemical your body uses to
break down fats for energy.
Fry two minutes on each
side, remove and chop.
2 / Switch to a saucepan and
fry the onion, celery and
garlic with some salt and
pepper over a medium-low
heat. After 10 minutes, add
the chicken liver and its
juices, the marsala and
wine. Simmer gently for an
hour until the sauce is thick
like pâté. Add the rosemary
and take it to the heat.
3 / Boil the pasta in a pan and
add a splash of water to
the liver sauce to thin it.
When the pasta is al dente,
drain and add to the creamy
liver sauce with parsley
and butter.
