Instructions

Cook the Pasta
1
  • Boil a large pot of salted water for the rigatoni.
  • When boiling, add the rigatoni and bring back to the boil.
  • Cook until softened, 10-12 mins.
  • Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back in the pot, off the heat.
  • Drizzle with oil and stir through to prevent sticking.

TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.

Prep Your Veg
2
  • Meanwhile, trim the courgette, halve lengthways and slice into 1cm thick semicircles.
  • Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).
  • Zest half lemon (per 2P). Cut into thick wedges. 
  • Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
Fry the Courgette
3
  • Place a large pan over high heat (without oil).
  • Once hot, cook the courgette until starting to brown, shifting as it colours, 6-8 mins.
  • Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 min.
Start the Sauce
4
  • Once the courgette has browned, reduce the heat.
  • Add creme fraiche, 50ml water (per 2P) and stock to the pan. 
  • Season with salt and pepper and stir to combine. 
  • Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce has thickened slightly, 3-4 mins.
Add the Prawns
5
  • Stir the prawns into the sauce.
  • Simmer until the prawns are cooked through, 4-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw prawns. Prawns are cooked when pink on the outside and opaque in the middle. 
  • Add another splash of water if the sauce needs loosening.
  • Meanwhile, mix together the lemon zest and parsley in a small bowl.
Garnish and Serve
6
  • Toss the drained rigatoni through the sauce. 
  • Season to taste with a squeeze of lemon juice, salt and pepper.
  • Divide the prawn pasta between bowls.
  • Garnish with the lemon and parsley topping.
  • Serve any remaining lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over.
