Salam Maulidur Rasul,   

Today Azam was supposed to write this entry, but due to some difficulty he can’t do it. He is probably still stuck in traffic jammed right now. Azam has promised to buy me Sate Willy Kajang if I help him so.. Sate Willy onss!!! Hehehe suka hati aku je Sate Willy.. So tomorrow will be his turn.

My previous entry was about Pasta Seafood Olio. Today’s dish is quite similar. I bought quite a lot of mussels last time for my Seafood Olio and I still have the balance of it. So I’ve decided to try new dish, something new which I never did or think of if before. So you can consider this one is a new food invention LOL! A spaghetti ala bolognese but with Mussels. I called it “Spaghetti Mussels Express” (bukan muscle ye!) Why Express? Becoz memang saya buat ni secara express. I still have Pasta Tomato Sauce which I bought last time for the Stuffed Mushroom, and also the extra spaghetti. So I used back all the ingredients. One additional ingredient is minced beef.

Ok here are the ingredients:
1. Spaghetti
2. Mussels
3. Minced Beef
4. Garlic clove (crushed)
5. Pasta Sauce Tomato
6. Black pepper
7. Oregano
8. Olive Oil
9. Salt

Bring the water and boiled. Add the pasta to the boiling water. Add salt to the boiled water. Cook pasta until 'Al-dente'. Drain the pasta and separate it.

Heat olive oil in a medium heat. Add in garlic and cook until golden color. Add in pasta sauce. Add in  Mussels and minced beef. In this dish I used minced beef just enough to give a bolognese feel to it because my Mussels mestilah menjadi hero dalam masakan ni. Kan? Cook slowly with medium heat. Add seasoning - black pepper, oregano and salt. Secukup rase.

Add spaghett to the mix, and cook slowly. Done! Express tak?

It’s quite unusual to taste spaghetti bolognese with seafood, but why not we try something new right?!

Ok, I’m late for my event tonight. Azam, kau kena belanja aku!

Enjoy the food and Salam Maulidur Rasul to all of you..

Spaghetti Seafood Olio Olia Oliu.
by: Subhi Karim, The Shooting Chef

Hello Sunday!

First of all, thanks to all the blog followers, and everyone who keeps coming back to read this ohsem "Ohsemwok 365 days with 365 of recipes" recipe blog! My dish today is Spaghetti Seafood Olio Olia Oliu.. Ok sebut laju2 please.. Olio Olia Oliu.. Olio Olia Oliu..Olio Olia Oliu.. Haaa....terbelit lidah tak? kan? Bagus...

Ok, It's actually my version of Spaghetti Seafood Olio :)

What you need is a 4 type of seafood - Fish fillet (here i used ikan merah, you can also you dory), squid, prawn and mussels (my favourite!)

 Other ingredients are a shown below:

 1/2 cup olive oil, black pepper, dried parsley, salt, mix herb (optional) and paprika (or dried chilies).

 Of coz the Spaghetti.

Garlic, minced.

Bring pasta to the boiled water. Add salt and olive oil. Boiled pasta around 13-15 minutes until "al-dente". As i mentioned before, the only way to tell the pasta is well cooked is to taste it! Ok, now drain the pasta and separate.

Heat olive oil in large pan. Add in minced garlic, cook until it turns to golden color. Add in all the seafood. Slowly cook in medium heat. Add in seasoning - black pepper, salt & dried parsley (you can also add in little bit of mixed herb, but don't too much).

Add in spaghetti to the mix seafood, and mix slowly with medium heat. You may wanna add more salt. Add in paprika to give little bit of spicy to the whole dish. You can add dried chilies (crushed) as well. It's up to you!

Ok, it's done.

Oh.. actually I'm supposed to add in capsicum but because I couldn't find it in the supermarket, I just leave that part. So it's good to have that in this meal.

Sorry for my broken English! Off to dinner!
