Ingredients

half a red radicchio from Treviso or late radicchio from Treviso PGI

400 g spaghetti

400 grams of shrimp

stale breadcrumbs

70 milliliters white wine

extra virgin olive oil

half an onion

salt and pepper

a few mint leaves

Procedure

Wash the chicory, removing the outer leaves and the white central parts and cutting it into thin strips. Clean the prawns by removing the shell, the head and the thin string of intestine found on the back.

Chop the onion and fry it with 8 tablespoons of oil in a non-stick pan, then add the radicchio and mix well: blend with white wine, allow to evaporate and add some salt. Sauté the radicchio for 5 minutes and set aside.

Boil the pasta in plenty of salted water.

While the pasta cooks, toast the breadcrumbs. Sauté the prawns with a pinch for a few seconds in a pan with a little oil and over a high heat. Add the breadcrumbs to the pan with a pinch of salt and sauté everything quickly so that the breadcrumbs stick to the prawns.

Drain the spaghetti al dente, reserving a little of the cooking water and add them to the radicchio sauce., mixing everything with a little of the cooking water if necessary. Serve the spaghetti, garnishing the dish with the 'ammuddicati' prawns, sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper and a little chopped mint and serve immediately. Bon appétit!

Note

Combination: with this 'seas and mountains' dish we suggest a pairing with a Vermentino di Sardegna. We chose the Blue from the cellars of Santa Maria La Palma of Alghero. A wine that is characterized by its freshness, a slight almond aftertaste that, We think, can recall the bitterness of radicchio and pleasantly contrast the sweetish taste of prawns.

Hello dear! Check out I had thought with balsamic vinegar and I resigned because I didn't know how she was with shrimps. To dampen I put Mint (and a pinch of sugar in the recipe isn't there because I forgot, now I add it) But if you try let me know how that goes with the balsamic vinegar that are ready to change the recipe!!!
