Tiger Prawn Spaghetti
with Chilli and Sun-Dried Tomatoes
If this dish were a place, it would be a sunny little fishing village somewhere on the coast of Sardinia. If it were a time, it would be an al fresco lunch, on a sun-dappled terrace, with a cold bottle of rosé. For this recipe we combined simple, light, fresh flavours to create a nostalgia-inducing meal that will leave you plenty of time to get online and book your next holiday. Daydreams included as standard.

Instructions
Boil a large pot of water. Peel and finely chop both the onion and the garlic. Finely chop the parsley. Chop the sun-dried tomatoes and finely chop the chilli. Slice the tiger prawns in half lengthways.
Heat a good glug of oil in a frying pan on medium heat. Once hot cook your onion, garlic and sun-dried tomatoes. Sprinkle in as much chilli as you dare together with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Cook for 5 mins and be careful not to let your veggies burn.
Add the chopped tomatoes and let the mixture bubble away on medium-low heat for around 10 mins until you have a nice thick sauce. Tip: If you're cooking for three, add in the passata at this stage too.
Cook the spaghetti in the boiling water with a pinch of salt for around 11 mins. Once your pasta is ‘al dente’, drain it. Tip: ‘Al dente’ means it is cooked but there is just a hint of firmness left in the middle.
Once your sauce has thickened, stir in the tiger prawns and cook them for a few mins until they turn pink.
Next, drop your pasta into the pan with your sauce. Sprinkle over your parsley, then toss the ingredients together to mix them. Tip: If you don’t fancy redecorating the kitchen, then you can always give it a good stir instead.
