Broccoli And Crayfish Pasta Recipe

This month, my assigned blogger for The Secret Recipe Club was Sara from Cook with Sara. Sara loves to cook and eat and thankfully for us, share her recipes. I love her mom’s philosophy on cooking as it was the same philosophy my Gran had and my mom has. Sara uses every day ingredients which is perfect for me as I live in a small fishing village with very little access to anything exotic. Sara has an extensive list of recipes to choose from and I spent a long afternoon browsing her blog. I eventually turned to Sara’s list of favourites to choose a recipe to make. After much reading, I chose the pasta with garlic shrimp and broccoli, which I have adapted. We spend a lot of time crayfishing and I decided to use some crayfish instead of shrimp. Shrimp here are tiny little things as small as the tip of my pinky finger. Anything larger we call prawns. For this recipe even langoustine tails would do, so use what is available close to where you live.
