Tetrazzini is an American-Italian hybrid, apparently created by first generation Italian Americans to satisfy the taste of people unused to rustic and bold Italian cooking. The result is creamy pasta with a satisfyingly crunchy topping.

Ingredients

  • 200g dried linguine or spaghetti
  • oil, for spraying or brushing
  • 25g butter
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 celery stick, thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1tbsp finely chopped fresh thyme leaves
  • 40g plain flour
  • 100ml white wine
  • 500ml chicken stock, made with 1 chicken stock cube
  • 200g button mushrooms, sliced
  • 3tbsp single cream
  • 150g frozen peas
  • 75ml semi skimmed milk
  • 300g skinless, cooked chicken breasts, cut into 2.5cm chunks
  • 20g dried coarse breadcrumbs or panko breadcrumbs
  • 25 parmesan cheese, finely grated

Method

  1. Half fill a large saucepan with water and bring to the boil over a high heat. Cook the pasta in the boiling water for 10-15 minutes or until only just tender. Drain in a colander and spray with a little of the oil to stop it sticking, then return to the pan.

  2. While the pasta is boiling, melt the butter in a large non-stick saucepan and gently cook the onion, celery, garlic and thyme for 5 minutes, or until the onion is well softened but not coloured, stirring regularly.

  3. Sprinkle the flour over the sauteed onion and garlic and stir well. Slowly add the wine, then the stock, stirring continuously to avoid any lumps. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently.

  4. Meanwhile, spray or brush a large non-stick frying pan or wok with oil and stir-fry the mushrooms for 3-4 minutes over a high heat until lightly browned.

  5. Stir the mushrooms, cream, peas and milk and chicken into the sauce and cook for a further 2-3 minutes more, stirring until hot. Tip onto the drained pasta and toss well together. Transfer to a warmed, shallow flameproof lasagne dish.

  6. Mix the breadcrumbs and Parmesan together and sprinkle over the top of the pasta. Cook under a preheated hot grill for 5-10 minutes or until golden brown

Feeling like a break from all that festive food? T Feeling like a break from all that festive food? This roasted veg salad may be just what you need. I’ve topped it with yoghurt that I’ve strained overnight in the fridge until it’s really thick - it’s lighter than cheese and is the perfect addition to a warm salad. I’ve sprinkled the salad with a few mixed seeds, added some leaves and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and extra virgin olive oil. An easy way to kick off a healthy 2021! 🥗
