Spaghetti con Gamberetti (Spaghetti with Prawns)

Spaghetti con Gamberetti (Spaghetti with Prawns)
Author: Lisa, Goodmayes

This made a nice change from just plain old tomato sauce, which, as we all know, can get REALLY boring!

1 medium courgette diced
5 oz/142g shelled prawns (raw or cooked - you can use frozen) 1 B choice on a Green day
½ carton passata with basil
1 small red onion diced finely
Olive oil
Fry Light spray
1 tbsp tomato pureé (½ Sin)
2 cloves garlic chopped finely

Coat a frying pan well with Fry Light. Put in the chopped onion and courgette and stir fry for a few minutes. Add in the garlic and stir fry again - add maybe a tablespoon of water here - it will stop the garlic burning.

Pour in the passata and leave to simmer on a low heat until the courgette is soft. Stir in the tomato purée and add salt and pepper to taste. You could add in some chilli sauce here as well.

Cook enough spaghetti for you and just before it's done add the prawns to the sauce. Cook well for 2 minutes. Drain the pasta and put back in its original pan, pour the sauce over it and mix well.
