  Enjoyed this for supper tonight though could have done with a little mre flavour. Cream coates well on the pasta. Need a very large frying pan for the full amount or possibly use two smaller ones.

  Simple, quick with great results. Used lemon juice as I didn't have a lime and used double the amount of garlic. Also used mature cheddar cheese as had no parmesan. Still came out delicious!

  Try this alternative version and tell me which you prefer - spaghetti alla chitarra with prawns, courgettes and saffron at http://tasteforbologna.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html The flavour comes from the shellfish and saffron stock rather than from cream and parmesan (which would never be served with a dish of this kind in Italy).

  I noted the other comments and added some chilli, ginger and lots of chopped coriander instead of the spinach. Would make it again

  It is nice, very simple, few ingredients and quick to make. Made according to the recipe once, then the second time I added some more garlic, and some smoked salmon. I enjoyed both versions :))

  This recipe made a lovely meal but I did add some other ingredients. I added some herbs and spring onion to the garlic at the beginning of the cooking to give it more flavour. I also added some of the pasta cooking water as well as creme fraiche instead of cream. I used lemon as I did not have lime and cheddar cheese instead of parmesan. It was delicious and served with a salad.

  This was quite tasteless although I did add some grainy mustard to the cream to try and up the flavour. There are far more tastier prawn pasta recipes out there.

  Really enjoyed this. I didn't add anything extra - and thought it still had a lovely flavour. I was cooking for two people but kept the ingredients qty the same (apart from the pasta) - think it would be hard to stretch the sauce into 4 portions!

  Very good. I added cherry tomatoes and chilli flakes and substituted half natural yoghurt half garlic and herb philly to lower the calorie count. I think it would've been nicer with single cream though, hence the loss of stars. But a really nice quick meal.
