How to Cook Perfect Pasta

Method

  • Heat the oil in a large frypan and sauté the garlic and prawns for 3-4 minutes until the prawns turn pink.

  • Cook the pasta in boiling salted water for 3-4 minutes until just al dente. Drain.

  • Add the pasta to the prawns and toss together in the pan. Add the cream, rocket, lemon juice and zest, capers and dill. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2 minutes until the sauce is thick and creamy. Season with freshly ground black pepper. Serve immediately with the lemon wedges.
