Ingredients
- 250g spaghetti
- 4tbsp olive oil
- 3 cloves of garlic, peeled, very finely and evenly sliced
- A pinch of dried chilli flakes (more if you like it spicy)
- A knob of chilled butter
- 150g packet of cooked shelled prawns, roughly chopped
- Juice of half a lemon
- Salt and black pepper
- 2tbsp grated Parmesan
1 Put the spaghetti into a pot of salted boiling water.
2 While it's cooking, put the oil and the garlic into a large frying pan or wok and cook gently over a low heat for two to three minutes, until it's evenly golden.
3 Add the chilli flakes and cold butter, swirl, then remove from the heat, this will prevent the garlic from getting too dark.
4 Add the prawns and lemon juice.
5 When the spaghetti is cooked, strain but keep a few spoonfuls of the cooking water, then add them to the prawn and garlic mix.
6 Season and mix together well.
7 Serve in warm bowls with the Parmesan on top.
