Seafood samp

Woolworths is committed to sustainability via our good business journey. Seasonal (and other) products might not always be in stock.

This recipe is inspired by one from Mama Dorah’s final recipe book. She used hake and calamari rings, which we’ve replaced with mussels. We've also added white wine and lemon instead of the spices.

Ingredients

300 g samp
1 litre water
2 T oil
2 T butter
1 t garlic, minced
1 onion, chopped
100 g mushrooms, sliced
12 medium prawns, cleaned and peeled
1 cup white wine
12 mussels
3 T lemon pepper
2 T parsley, finely chopped

Cooking Instructions

1. Cook the samp in salted water until soft, about 2 hours.

2. Heat the oil in a pan and fry the prawns for 5 minutes, then set aside.

3. Add the butter to the same pan and fry the onion and garlic. Add the mushrooms and cook until soft.

4. Pour in the wine to deglaze the pan. Add the mussels and lemon pepper. Cook until the mussels open. Add the samp and mix well. Garnish with parsley.
