Recipe #2 - Pesto Prawn Pasta!


Ingredients needed:


  • Pesto                   Probably about 3-4 heaped teaspoons
  • Pasta                  Tagliatelle is best, but linguine or another sort is also fine.
  • Prawns               King prawns are nicer - however many you like!
  • Garlic                The more the better - I'd say 3-4 cloves, roughly chopped
  • Chilli                  One hot, or a few medium heat, finely chopped
  • Parmesan          Just a tablespoons worth to serve.


How To:

Start by pouring boiling water over your chosen pasta into a pan, cooking it with a pinch of salt. **By the time the pasta is cooked, the dish will be ready.**

Meanwhile, dash some olive oil into a pan and sizzle together the garlic and chillies to create a beautiful romance (If they start to lose their sparkle, add a little water to rekindle the buzz).
Add the prawns and just as they start to turn pink, add the pesto and perhaps even a tad more water.
**Use the water from the boiling pasta**




Simmer slowly and once the pasta is al dente (firm but not hard), mix it into your pesto prawn sauce.





And there you have it! 
Serve with or without parmesan and enjoy! x
