NOTE:

If you like the flavor with seafood tomatoes, you can add 3–4 datterini halved tomatoes or cherry tomatoes. Do this at the very beginning before adding the seafood.
If you don't have tomatoes, you can add less than one teaspoon of tomato paste, not more, because the seafood will lose its smell and taste! Do not use tomato concentrate!
