SPAGHETTI AL CARTOCCIO - (SPAG COOKED IN A BAG)
This sounds so good! Posting here to keep safe until I have some good seafood on hand. From Terry Durack, who also suggests turning it Asian by subbing hokkien or udon noodles for the spag, and instead of the tomato sauce a quick stir fry of garlic, chili and ginger, with a dash each of fish sauce, white wine and sweet chili. Mix with the seafood, put in the bag and bake 15 mins. So there's 2 recipes : )

- Meanwhile, to a large high-sided saute pan over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons oil, the remaining fennel, white onion and ginger and saute until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in the saffron. Carefully strain the broth directly into the ginger and onion pan, breaking up the crab and reserving for later. Allow the broth to simmer vigorously for about 30 minutes to thicken and reduce.
- Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
- Meanwhile, soak a double-lined paper bag in water for about 5 minutes in a clean sink. Place on a rimmed baking sheet.

- Pour the reduced broth over all the seafood and toss to combine. Add to the soaked paper bag. Roll the top of the bag to seal, creating a pouch, and lay, roll side-down, on the baking sheet.
- Bake for 20 minutes. Bring to the table on a platter and cut open with some scissors. Serve with the lemon wedges.
