Miam Miam Restaurant specialises in French food with a Japanese Twist and I always love fusion food. It’s a marriage between the best of 2 regions and Miam Miam definitely makes it a spot on!
We love eating paste because of it versatility in cooking and it’s very convenient for a quick meal. This recipe is really quick, and easy. The ingredients used are simple and also relatively cheap – Making this dish a fast and affordable family meal. Although simple ingredients are use, the addition of Japanese seasoning makes this dish really flavorsome!
Step by Step Pictorial Guide
Ok, I forgotten to add chopped garlic into the flatlay of the ingredients but yes, basically these are the ingredients needed.
Step 1:
Bring 1 litre of water to boil under medium high heat. Add salt when boil.
Step 2:
Lower the heat to medium and add in the spaghetti and cooked until Al Dente (slightly undercooked; firm to bite and not soft). Depending on different brand use (and pasta use; this recipe call for spaghetti, but you can opt for linguine, capellini, etc), usually about 10 mins but do test the doneness at about 8 mins
When done, drain away the pasta water (save about 4 to 6 tablespoons of the water for later use) and set the pasta aside.
Step 3:
In a heated pan, render the bacon in its on fats for about 5 to 10 mins over medium low heat until the meat crisp and brown. Remove from the pan when done and set aside for later use.
Step 4:
Using the same pan, turn up the heat to medium. Add in butter, chopped garlic, sliced onions and saute it for about 30 sec until fragrance
Step 5:
Add in tomato, mushrooms, sausage and bacon and saute for another 1 min.
Step 6:
Add in the drained pasta, spinach, seasonings and 4 tablespoons of pasta water (more if neccessary). Toss until the seasoning is mixed in and remove the pan from the heat.
Tada! Easy right?! Top with an onsen egg (or even a pan fried sunny side up or if you are adventurous, a raw egg yolk) and sprinkle with toasted white sesame.
