Instructions

1. Bring 5 L of water to a boil in a large pot over medium-high heat.
2. Heat a generous drizzle of extra virgin olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.
3. Add the finely chopped garlic and stir, letting it simmer for about 30 seconds.
4. Add the zucchini cubes and cook for about 10 minutes, until they begin to soften.
5. Add the porcini mushrooms, stir with a wooden spoon until the oil thickens into a creamy consistency.
6. When the water boils, dissolve 2 pinches of sea salt in it and add the pasta; cook for 17 minutes.
7. A few minutes before the pasta is ready, add the shrimp to the zucchini and mushroom mix and cook gently for a few minutes.
8. Sprinkle with parsley and mix through, then add a small handful of fresh breadcrumbs and hot chilli oil if wanted.
9. Drain the pasta and add it to the pan with the sauce, adding a little of the cooking water to coat the pasta evenly. Mix well.
