Prawn Tagliatelle


Serves 2

9pp per serving/0pp on F&H


120g Wholewheat Tagliatelle (11)

260g Cooked and Peeled Prawns (6)

1 tsp Olive Oil (1)

500g Cherry Tomatoes (0)

3 Cloves of Garlic (0)

3 tsps Granular Low Calorie Sweetener (0)

1 Chilli (0)

Fresh Basil (0)


Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and put all the cherry tomatoes in along with some torn, fresh basil.

Chop the garlic and add to the pan. Fry over a medium heat for 5-10 minutes until the tomatoes start to soften.

Once softened, carefully pierce and cut open each tomato with a sharp knife, to release the juices and seeds.

Gently squash the cooked tomatoes with the back of a spoon to flatten them and release more juices.

Add the sweetener, 2-3 tbsp water, black pepper and chilli.

Allow it to bubble away until the tomatoes have really softened and combined with the garlic into a thickened sauce. This takes about 10 more minutes. If it looks too dry, add a little more water.

Cook the tagliatelle in boiling water, according to products instructions.

While the pasta is cooking, tip the prawns into the bubbling, hot tomato sauce.

Once cooked, drain the pasta and add to the hot sauce, mixing thoroughly to distribute all the delicious flavours.

Add some more freshly torn basil and ground black pepper before serving.
