Lækker og nem pastaret, lidt i den dyre ende, men i weekenden må man gerne forkæles lidt
Hej Helle

Hvilke rejer køber du?
Tror den er smuttet med rejer og pasta 🙂
700 går rejer men ingen pasta i opskriften
Hej Rikke
Ej for Søren, det er opdateret nu 🙂
Tak for at gøre opmærksom på det.
Warm wishes, Dianna
Det smagte så godt
Hvor meget pasta bruger du? 🙂
Hej,
Ser så lækkert ud. 🙂
Kan man erstatte hvidvin? Noget uden alkohol.
Hejsa
Ja du kan sagtens undlade hvidvinen.
Juster evt. konsistensen med pastavand hvis der er behov for det – og smag til med citron:)
Warm wishes, Dianna
Uh….
Den ser lækker ud
Hvor køber du rejer?
