Healthy Tomato Spaghetti with delicious grilled mackerel

March 12, 2017

Why not try this healthy spaghetti with grilled mackerel for a change? It is easy to make and takes about 45  minutes to sort out.Personally, food meant more than just eating, it is a way of nourishing my body and taking care of its metabolism. What is the point of eating if it does nothing to the body? Food is to the body like breath is to life.

In this recipe, I used mackerel due to its goodness, it is a good source of vitamin D, protein, selenium and vitamin B. It is very rich in omega-3 fatty acids.It also contains the type of fat that is beneficial to our body called monounsaturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fatty acids. Wholemeal spaghetti is the type of pasta that I used, you can choose any pasta of your choice. However, I think it is important to know that wholemeal pasta is high in vitamin B, minerals such as manganese, selenium and magnesium. It is filling compared to refined pasta and it supplies the body’s need by slowly releasing energy.  It contains high nutritional benefits naturally, unlike refined pasta which is enriched with vitamins. The wholemeal food contains the body’s need naturally with fewer fortifications.

This recipe feeds 7 people and you will need the following:

A pack of dried wholemeal spaghetti

800g of chopped tomatoes

2 teaspoon of mixed herbs

3 tablespoons of oil. I used sunflower oil ( you can use any oil of your choice)

Chopped onions

Salt

Pepper

Grilled mackerel

Start by cooking your spaghetti according to the instruction on the pack. Drain and keep for later use.

Place the oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Once hot, add chopped onions. Stir until softened. Add the chopped tomatoes and mixed herbs and stir, cook for about 12 minutes. Next, you add the cooked spaghetti and make sure the tomato sauce cover the spaghetti completely.Cook until the spaghetti is piping hot. Season with salt and paper.

Grilled mackerel could be bought to save time, but, grilling your mackerel is easier and tastier than shop bought.

To grill mackerel, you will need the following:

Cleaned fresh mackerel

Salt

Pepper

Place the mackerel on a  baking sheet, sprinkle the mackerel with salt and paper. Heat grill and place the mackerel. Cook for 7 minutes, take the mackerel out of the grill, turn and sprinkle with paper. Return back to the grill and cook for further 5 minutes until the flesh cooked and crisp.

Take out of the grill, drain. Dish out the spaghetti and your grilled mackerel. Grate your preferred cheese on top.Enjoy!
