Spaghetti al Pomodoro e Gamberi is a delightful Italian seafood dish that combines the sweetness of fresh tomatoes with the succulent taste of shrimp, creating a perfect harmony of flavors. This kosher version maintains authenticity while ensuring it adheres to dietary laws.

Ingredients

• Spaghetti - 200 grams
• Large shrimp, peeled and deveined - 200 grams
• Fresh tomatoes, diced - 400 grams
• Garlic, minced - 3 cloves
• Olive oil - 3 tablespoons
• Fresh basil leaves, chopped - 10 grams
• Salt - to taste
• Black pepper - to taste
• Red pepper flakes - 1/4 teaspoon
• Parmesan cheese, grated - 30 grams (optional)

Steps

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente.
2. While the pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
3. Add the diced tomatoes to the skillet, season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break down and create a sauce.
4. Add the shrimp to the tomato sauce and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, until the shrimp are pink and opaque.
5. Once the spaghetti is cooked, reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water and drain the rest. Add the drained spaghetti to the skillet with the shrimp and tomato sauce.
6. Toss the spaghetti in the sauce, adding reserved pasta water as needed to reach desired consistency. Stir in chopped basil and adjust seasoning if necessary.
7. Serve hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
