Whenever you're feeling as low as your savings account, know that rich people have the same problems as you do. It's just that they have the money to solve them. Here's a great dish for the weekend that won't set you back a paycheck or two.
As fancy as it sounds and looks, this is a really cheap meal. Make it to impress your friends, colleagues, or in-laws when you ain't got no money but you want to them to fork over a bottle of wine for dinner. It's packed with fresh springtime flavors that are guaranteed to please your guests, unless your guests are allergic to fish... Umm, moving on...
Spaghetti alla Puttanesca means "Spaghetti the way a whore would make it"... Let us explain... Back in the 1950's, Italy was rife with legal brothels. To prevent squabbles between the housewives and hos (obviously this was before reality TV), the prostitutes were only allowed to shop at local markets once a week, and so whatever they bought had to last. That's why this recipe is made up of preserves ... and slutty goodness. Enjoy!

Cream sauces are Nadia's specialty (that, and whipping a stiletto across the room with impeccable aim.) This Gorgonzola sauce with Portobello is one of her best.
Let's get cooking!
