wine, chilli and garlic spaghettini
A light tomato and white wine sauce flecked with succulent chunks of barramundi takes this pasta dish to a new luxe level. Shards of crispy barra skin and crunchy garlicy breadcrumbs add texture.
Ingredients
Instructions
- To make the garlic breadcrumbs, preheat oven to 200°C. Toss breadcrumbs, oil, garlic and lemon rind in a bowl and season. Spread on an oven tray and bake for 10-15 minutes until golden brown and crisp. Stir through parsley and set aside.
- Bring a large saucepan of generously salted water to the boil. Add the pasta, stir to combine, then cook until al dente - 5-6 minutes for dried pasta or 2-3 minutes for fresh pasta. Drain and return to the pan, reserving ½ cup of the pasta cooking water.
- Meanwhile, heat a large heavy-based frying pan over medium heat. Season barramundi all over with sea salt and freshly ground pepper. Drizzle with 2 tbsp olive oil and rub into the skin and flesh.
- Place barramundi, skin-side down in the heated pan and cook for 6 minutes, turn and cook for another 7 minutes. Transfer to a plate to rest for 2 minutes.
- Return the barramundi pan to a high heat, add the remaining olive oil and tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally for 4-5 minutes until the tomatoes blister and start to split. Add the wine, garlic and chilli, season to taste and boil for 1-2 minutes to reduce to a sauce. Add lemon juice and butter, swirl to combine and emulsify, then add the pasta and toss to combine. Add pasta cooking water if necessary to loosen the pasta.
- Remove the crisp skin from the barramundi and break into shards. Flake the barramundi into large chunks, toss gently through the pasta. Divide among serving plates, top with the crispy skin and garlic breadcrumbs and serve with lemon wedges.

So, what's in the feed?
The food is designed to mimic our Barra's natural diet needs as much as possible while easing pressure on wild fish stocks by incorporating a range of proteins from vegetables and grains, as well as proteins from places that manufacture food for human consumption, including chicken, beef and fish. Instead of being discarded, these proteins are heat treated and dried, allowing what would normally be wasted to be converted into sustainable barramundi food and form part of a circular economy.
Barramundi can digest a wide range of proteins to optimise their health and growth. In the wild, they will eat other fish, birds, frogs, prawns, crabs, tadpoles, insects etc - if it's in the water, and it fits in their mouths, they'll eat it!
By incorporating proteins that would otherwise be discarded, we can grow a premium Australian product sustainably, while reducing pressure on our oceans and reducing food waste.
