MODIANO MARKET AND LENT
Downtown Thessaloniki, in the heart of the city. We are in a fasting period, and today, we are cooking with products that we will discover in the Agora Modiano stores. Agora has been the place where Thessalonians have always been coming to find the best products for their daily table. Fine and affordable.

Whenever I find the time, I go downtown for the day's shopping. Today, I am still trying to decide what I want to cook. Some fresh seafood, maybe. I'm thinking of stopping by the Agora Modiano. With so many choices available, I'll definitely come up with something. Let's see what's on the seafood counter today.
Ingredients for 4 people
400 g cherry tomatoes
2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
2 spring onions, finely chopped
10 asparagus in large pieces
2 tablespoons of olive oil Chrysopigi
Salt – Pepper
300 g hot water
16 shrimps, cleaned, Pescaderia
300 g linguini, Olicatessen
Fresh herbs
Instructions
We will use a large pot that goes in the oven for cooking. Add the cherry tomatoes, garlic, spring onions, asparagus, olive oil, salt, and pepper, mix and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for 20 minutes or until the cherry tomatoes are cooked. When ready, add the shrimp, pasta, hot water, fresh herbs, stir, and bake for about 15 minutes. Serve with a few drops of olive oil on top.
