Instructions
- Add the butter and olive oil to a large chef's pan and heat until the butter melts and starts to foam.
- Add the shallots, garlic, salt and sugar. Cook, stirring, over low heat for five minutes or until the shallots have softened.
- Stir in the chopped tomatoes and cook for about a minute.
- Add the wine and lemon juice and bring to a simmer. Increase the heat and cook for about five minutes or until the wine aroma disappears.
- Add the brown crab meat and stir into the sauce.
- Meanwhile cook the linguine while you prepare the sauce. Prepare according to packet instructions – cooked in salted water till al dente. Reserve about 120ml (1/2 cup) of the pasta water before draining.
- Stir the pasta into the sauce and add the white crab meat and parmesan. Add a splash of the reserved pasta water to loosen the sauce.
- Toss with the parsley to combine. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if needed. Serve with the parsley and chilli flakes.
