Remember those curly shrimps in my fried rice fit for the "emperor" ? I'll hand over the trick for these lovely curlies. Click for bigger picture!When you slit the shrimps to de-vein, do not cut through to the other side so that you can keep one whole shrimp intact.

Presto Pasta Nights starts year three and what is better than whipping up my favorite tomato-based pasta dish. I don't claim I cook the best pasta dish but in my own repertoire of pasta dishes, this pasta is one of those I do best.Ever since I got used to using canned tomatoes (main ingredients: tomatoes, sea salt) for making my own pasta sauce, I have long forgotten …
