The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.

Water for the Sauce
Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with 1/2 tsp salt.
When boiling, add the linguine to the water and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 12 mins.
While the pasta cooks, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
Drain the prawns.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.
Once hot, add the chorizo and fry until it starts to brown, 3-4 mins.
Next, add the prawns and stir-fry for 2-3 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw prawns.
Stir in the garlic and fry for 30 secs.
Stir the chicken stock paste, creme fraiche and water for the sauce (see pantry for amount) into the pan.
Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer until thickened, 2-3 mins.
Meanwhile, once the pasta is cooked, drain in a colander and pop back in the pan. Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.
Once the sauce has thickened, stir in the peas and the hard Italian style cheese. Cook until the peas are piping hot, 1-2 mins. IMPORTANT: The prawns are cooked when pink on the outside and opaque in the middle.
Stir in the cooked pasta. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. Add a splash of water if it's a little too thick.
Share the creamy chorizo and prawn linguine between your bowls.
Top with a handful of rocket and drizzle over the balsamic glaze to finish.
Enjoy!
