  I made this with fettacini instead of spag and used chilli oil to toss the pasta in. It was really tasty esp as we had about double the amount of prawns you were supposed to! Tee hee!

  Delish! I added some garlic, and thinly sliced red peppers and used baby spinach as suggested instead of rocket.

  Really easy to make but still very tasty! I used linguine instead of spaghetti and lots of prawns with extra chilli and rocket. I'll definitely try this again.

  This is a great recipe if your having friends round. It looks great and takes very little time. So if you get home from work late you can still be a great hostess. I added some halved cherry tomatoes for colour and I used a scotch bonnet chilli as I like it spicy but take care and add a little at a time. Serve lemon sorbet as desert if you need a pud at all.
