Garlic prawn with tomato sauce with linguine or spaghetti

I have fallen in love with this dish! I cannot believe that something so simple can be so delicious.  I hope you love it as much as I do!


Serves 4

Syns per serving
FREE

Ingredients:
525g of raw king prawns
800g of cherry tomatoes
5-8 cloves of garlic, crushed
1 bunch of parsley, finely chopped
1/2tsp dry chillies
400-500g of linguine or spaghetti

Method:
Cut the tomatoes in half, put in a bowl and crush with your hands so some of the juices come out.

In a pan fry the garlic with fry light for 1-2 minutes, add the tomatoes and chillies and turn down the heat so that the tomatoes can cook slowly and the sauce can thicken up. I cooked mine for about 15-20 minutes. Half way through, get a potato masher and gently mash down the tomatoes so that they can soften and more juice can be released.

In the meantime boil some water and cook the pasta.

Once the sauce has thickened up add the prawns and cook for 7-8 minutes or until they have turned pink and they are not transparent anymore.

Once cooked take off the heat, add the parsley and stir.

Serve immediately with the pasta and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese.

Enjoy!
