  I tried this out for a quick family meal by doubling the ingredients. It was lovely and the children were virtually licking their plates! Best of all it was soooo quick to make. Next time I may replace a little of the wine with stock. It is definitely special enough to serve when friends come served with a salad and fresh bread.

  I was disappointed with this actually - I think I put too much lemon juice in though as that was the overwhelming flavour. So if you try it, maybe add a bit at a time and taste.

  Very quick and tasty. Agree with VonnyBee's comment about the lemon - go easy.

  I absolutely love this recipe, it's so easy and very tasty. I double the garlic and add a finely chopped red chilli.

  Is there anything you could use to replace the prawns? Maybe chicken? I want to cook it for my other half but he hates prawns.

  I think it was a little too tart with the creme fraiche and lemon together, so much so I binned the first batch! The second try, I doubled the garlic used a little lemon and zest and added single cream instead of creme fraiche and it was SO much better. Also added some clams and squid along with the prawns. Def one for an easy but impressive dinner party main!

  I make a version of this but use more garlic. Sometimes add parsley instead and have also added either mussels or indian squid tubes. If you have a lot of courgettes grate courgettes at the last minute.

  I was really disappointed with the result :( I only put abit of lemon in but even then it was way too lemony!! Next time Im going to add less lemon & some light philidelphia cheese instead of the cream fraiche. Recommendation: Light philidelphia, prawns or salmon, dill, asparagas, chilli seeds & linguine :)

  I followed this recipe to the measurement and the second, and I was so disappointed. 100ml is FAR too much white wine. It should be called white wine pasta with prawns. Even with the smallest amount of lemon juice it would have been too over powering and acidic.
