Ingredients

Instructions

1. Fill a stockpot a little over halfway with water, salt it generously and bring it to a boil over high heat.
2. Heat a large frying pan over medium heat and add the olive oil.
3. Pat the shrimp dry on paper towels, then season with salt and pepper.
4. Sear the shrimp in a single layer for 2 to 3 minutes, until just cooked through. Remove and set aside.
5. In the same pan, cook the onion and garlic for about 3 minutes, until the onion is slightly translucent. Stir in the flour for 2 minutes, then add the oregano, thyme, paprika and crushed red pepper and stir quickly.
6. Add the vegetable broth and milk and stir gently for a couple of minutes, until the sauce is slightly creamy (about 4 to 5 minutes).
7. Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Reduce to low and simmer, stirring every 2 minutes so no film forms on top.
8. Meanwhile, add the pasta to the boiling water and stir every 2 to 3 minutes. Cook until al dente, following the package instructions.
9. Reserve some pasta water, then drain the pasta.
10. Turn off the heat under the sauce. Stir in the shrimp, basil, Manchego and lemon juice, then add the pasta and 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of the reserved water and mix well.
11. Serve straight from the pan or in shallow bowls, with extra grated cheese if you like.
