I love this recipes, easy to make, I don’t cut the garlic I fry them whole first to give the oil a garlic taste ,small with the chilli I take out the seed and fry a whole chilli just simply move them to the side when eating, just been watching chiefs not chopping there garlic and chillis, I use fresh tomatoe and can diced Italian tomatoes together, oh for the person who used pasta water don’t do that it won’t be as tasty any more, just become more watery, I’ve done that as well.
Delicious- my daughter said it’s better than in Italian restaurant.
For some reason this didn’t turn out as tasty as I was expecting – rather bland, in fact.
I had to use frozen raw prawns so wonder whether that made a difference? I would try this again, but using fresh prawns & maybe tinned tomatoes rather than fresh ones – maybe some tomato puree as well. Perhaps there was too much of the pasta cooking water in the mix as well!
Hi Kay – I’m sorry to hear that this recipe didn’t turn out as you were expecting. We do recommend using raw fresh prawns for maximum flavour and you could easily substitute in tinned tomatoes instead of fresh (as mentioned in the ‘tips’ at the bottom of the recipe). I hope this works out for you next time! Thanks
I love this recipe because, as with all incredible Italian dishes, it contains so few ingredients to make the most exquisitely tasting and satisfying meal. The best Italian dishes I know contain only 4 – 8 ingredients and create delicious memorable moments in the eating.
I love this recipe because, apart from being so easy to make and tasting absolutely delicious, it reminds me of sitting in a café in Sorrento where I ate something very similar but with a taste of lemon. It was Sorrento…everything has lemon in it!
I love this recipe because I love pasta with seafood, I also like the combination of garlic, chilli and tomatoes. Great flavour.
I love this receive because it’s hot, fruity and oh so good for you, just like Tuscany !
I love this recipe as it is quick and tastey. A great mid-week treat.
I love this recipe because it contains prawns, which are my favourite, and has a hint of spice about it.
I love this recipe because it’s quick and easy to make, lovely and fresh and the chilli gives it a little bite. I add a little rocket at the end just wilted. Yum.
