main course
Pasta with shrimps and Pistachio from Bronte As good islanders, Sicilians often dress pasta with all sorts of crustaceans. The prawns, in particular, are among the favorites and in fact, we find them in many recipes of Sicilian cuisine. In the Mamma Corleones version they are enriched by the pistachio of Bronte, a product of excellence of our island.
secondo
Breadcrumbed mackerel or cod Sicilians love Mackerel fish most of all... It's a part of the blue fish category, and is a most common fish. Mackerel can be roasted, baked, fried, preserved in oil or grilled. Mamma Corleone offers us a soft and tender breaded mackerel, to be enjoyed warm.
