Strictly speaking, parmesan is never served with seafood sauces in Italy. But rules are made for breaking, so if you like it, why not add a sprinkling of parmesan to this clam spaghetti?

Ingredients

175g/6oz spaghetti

2 x 130g jars clams in tomato sauce

splash wine, whatever you have

1 garlic clove, finely crushed

handful parsley

freshly grated parmesan, to serve, optional

Method

  1. To cook the pasta boil the kettle, then three quarters fill a large pan with boiling water. Add some salt – the water will seethe – then coil in the spaghetti. Simmer, uncovered, for 12 mins or according to pack instructions.

  2. Meanwhile, tip the clam sauce into a small pan, pour in the wine and add the garlic. Simmer for a few mins while you coarsely chop the parsley, then stir into the sauce and grind in a good amount of black pepper. 

  3. Drain the spaghetti and tip into a warmed bowl. Pour in the sauce and toss well. Serve at once, with grated parmesan scattered over if you like.
