1 tbsp fat (eg. butter, ghee, coconut oil, olive oil)
2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
1 leek, sliced
50 dkg seafood mix (eg. shrimp, mussels, scallops, octopus, squid)

Vitamin B12 can only be found in animal source foods so it’s highly important for vegans to supplement it. Its richest sources are liver and shellfish. These are extraordinarily diverse sources of nutrients and because of this it’s worth having them weekly. If you’re only getting to know seafood and aren’t sure how to prepare them, now is the time to experiment. Frozen, shelled mussels are available in many shops, they only take a few minutes to prepare which means it’s ideal, healthy fast food. You can cook mussels in soups, sauces, pasta dishes with lots of different seasoning.

Heat the fat in a larger pan, add the leek and garlic, sauté for a few minutes. Add the seafood, lemon juice, parsley, fishsauce, coconut cream, salt and pepper, and cook for 5-10 minutes. Cook the pasta at the same time. Add a few spoonfuls of the pasta’s cooking water to the sauce to make it creamier. Drain the pasta and add it to the seafood. Serve with herbs sprinkled on top.
