Recipe By Michael Weldon

Ingredients

  • 1 large blue swimmer crab, cooked and meat picked

  • 500 g San Remo no. 1 linguine 

  • 2 tbs Coles butter

  • 1 onion, diced finely

  • 2 garlic cloves

  • ½ cup Coles cream

  • 1 lemon, zest and juice

Method

  • In a large pot of salted boiling water cook the pasta following the packet instructions.

  • In a frypan over a medium heat melt the butter, add the onion with a pinch of salt and cook until it begins to soften. Add the garlic and cook for a minute, add the cream and turn the heat down and thicken the sauce. 

  • When the pasta is cooked add the crab to the cream and then transfer the pasta into the sauce, taking a little pasta water with it. Add the lemon and some freshly ground black pepper, mix until the sauce coats the pasta evenly.
