Instructions

  1. Bring a 2000 ml water to a boil and add 2 tsp salt. 
  2. Add 2 tbsp olive oil and 2 cloves garlic to a cold frying pan. Heat on low and fry until the garlic is lightly golden and fragrant. Remove the garlic pieces and eat them on their own or save them for another dish (great with salads etc!)
  3. Add the 50 g red onion and 1 anchovy fillet. Fry until the onion is slightly softened. 
  4. Once the onion is softened, add 200 g dry pasta to the boiling pot of water and cook until al dente (generally 1-2 minutes less than the packaging states). 
  5. Add 3 tbsp canned tomato and 3 tbsp white wine to the frying pan. 
  6. Mix well and then add 150 ml heavy cream.
  7. Once the cream is heated through and almost bubbling, add ¼ tsp salt and 50-100 g sea urchins "uni". Break up the uni and mix it into the sauce.
  8. Allow the sauce to continue simmering while you wait for the pasta to finish cooking. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a small amount of pasta water to loosen it up and make it glossy.
  9. Once the pasta is cooked, transfer it to the pan with the sauce and turn off the heat. Add 1 tsp unsalted butter.
  10. Mix until the pasta is fully coated and the butter has melted into the sauce.
  11. Transfer to serving plates and top with 2 pinches ground black pepper and parsley .
  12. Enjoy!
