    Lovely. The greens go amazingly well with the pasta & the whole thing is really tasty. I used slightly less pasta than this (as I'd run out!)

    The recipe looks good but it says that it has 11.4g of saturated fat. Is this an error?

    This recipe was so quick and easy - and makes a nice change for pasta. Would do it again when spring greens arrive in my veggie box!

    I did this tonight great for a mid-week meal. I did add a small amount of sweet chilli sauce as well as the fresh red chilli. I thought the flavour was fresh and subtle but very tasty. I never thought of putting spring greens with pasta but it worked really well and I will be doing this again. Thumbs up!

    I made this the other night with Tesco own brand raw peeled prawns - thought the flavours were wonderful and the spring greens really make the dish. Just one thing - I personally thought 200g of linguine was a little too much and put 150g in instead, which was just about right.

    This was great, I used tagliatelle instead of linguine, and 2 birds eye chillies (seeds removed), instead of spring greens, I microwaved some frozen chopped spinach, (drained thorougly) and mixed in with the oil, garlic, chillies and prawns....

    I was really surprised at how tasty this dish was given the minimal ingredients but the flavours really come together. Firm favourite now...refreshingly simple. Used a touch of sweet chili sauce on the side.

    This dish made a great mid week meal, easy to do and quick. Enjoyed it very much just if I would change anything I would maybe give it a bit of a sauce as the pasta was quite dry. Overall though enjoyable and I will amke it again.

    This recipe states that it is low fat, yet it has 11.4g of saturated fat!!! That is not low fat and it is miss leading. Is this individual portion, or for the amount cooked (so in this case it serves two people)?
