Water for the Sauce
a) Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with 1/2 tsp salt.
b) When boiling, add the rigatoni to the water and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 12 mins.
c) Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back into the pan. Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.

c) Bring to a simmer, then cook until the sauce has thickened slightly, 3-4 mins.
a) Once thickened, bring the sauce to the boil. Stir in the prawns and cook for another 5-6 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw prawns. The prawns are cooked when pink on the outside and opaque in the middle.
b) Add a splash of water if it gets too thick.
a) When ready, mix the cooked pasta into the sauce with a squeeze of lemon juice to taste.
b) Taste and season with salt and pepper.
