Spaghetti with Avocado Cream and Shrimp

I can suggest a recipe for preparing spaghetti with avocado cream and shrimp, a dish that combines the freshness of avocado with the refinement of shrimp, for a taste that evokes the sea with an exotic touch.

Ingredients

• 320g spaghetti
• 2 ripe avocados
• 300g already cleaned shrimp
• 1 clove of garlic
• The juice of one lime
• Fresh parsley to taste
• Extra virgin olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste.

Preparation

1. In a large pan, lightly sauté the chopped garlic with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Add the shrimp and cook them until they turn pink. Lightly salt them and set aside.
2. Meanwhile, blend the avocado pulp with the lime juice, a pinch of salt and a handful of fresh parsley until you obtain a homogeneous cream.
3. Cook the spaghetti in plenty of salted water following the times indicated on the package to obtain an al dente cooking.
4. Drain the spaghetti and reserve a cup of the cooking water. Add the spaghetti to the pan with the shrimp and the avocado cream. If necessary, use some of the reserved cooking water to make the cream more fluid.
5. Mix well over medium heat to combine the ingredients.
6. Serve immediately, garnishing with more chopped parsley and a grating of black pepper.

Trivia

This dish combines flavors and textures from different culinary traditions. Avocado, originally from Central America, is now widespread and appreciated all over the world both for its taste and its nutritional properties. Paired with shrimp, it becomes the protagonist of a dish with a unique flavor and an international flair.
