PRAWN AND PASTA RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• 1. Cook your spaghetti in a large pan of salted boiling water according to the packet instructions.
  2. Meanwhile, peel and finely chop the garlic. Heat 3 good lugs of extra virgin olive oil in a large frying pan, then toss in the garlic and crumble in the chilli. As the garlic begins to colour, add the prawns and sauté them for a minute. Add the white wine and tomato purée, and simmer for a couple of minutes.
  3. Grate the zest of the lemon and roughly chop the rocket. When the pasta is ready, drain it in a colander, reserving a little of the cooking water.
  4. Toss the spaghetti with the sauce, squeeze in the lemon juice, add half the chopped rocket, adding a little of the reserved cooking water if you want to loosen the sauce a bit, and correct the seasoning with sea salt and black pepper.
  5. Divide between 4 plates and sprinkle with the grated lemon zest and the rest of the rocket leaves.

Steps:

• Cook the pasta according to pack instructions. Drain, then return to the pan with a good splash of the cooking water.
• Meanwhile, heat a dry pan over a high heat. Add the chopped tomatoes, then cover and cook for 10 minutes. Remove the pan lid and add the oil, garlic, chilli paste and vinegar. Season with salt, pepper and a pinch of sugar, then simmer for 5 minutes or until the sauce thickens.
• Remove the pan lid, then add the prawns to the tomato sauce and cook until they are just pink. Add the cooked pasta and chopped parsley to the pan and toss to combine, then serve.
