Edamae cream pasta~
Have been feeling tired the whole day, so the easiest dinner to make, would be pasta.
Edamame miso cream pasta with sauteed scallops

When i make creamy pastas, i usually try to make the dish less heavy by using less pasta
and tossing in lots of vegetables or mushrooms. Used enoki this time.

This sauce was pretty simple, and full of flavour.

200g precooked edamame bean(or any beans)
1/2 a pack of enoki mushrooms (cut into half lengthwise)
1 clove garlic (mashed)
2 tbs miso
1 and half cups soybean milk (or mlik)
Pasta (cooked according to instructions)

Boil pasta.
Fry the mashed garlic and edamame in a frying pan with some olive oil. When fragrant, add a dash of white wine.
Add 1 tsp salt, stir in 1/2 cup pasta water (water from boiling pasta), and process everything in blender.
Return the paste to pan, turn heat back on and add enoki.
Toss in pasta.
Top pasta with sauteed scallops or any seafood, and some grated cheese. Voila~
And a super simple salad, by boiling everything in the same pot, tossing in some tomatoes, and drizzled with some homemade onion shoyu dressing.

After my looooooooong afternoon nap, i still need more sleeeeeeeeeeeep.zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
