Cooking steps

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, reserve some pasta water for the sauce then 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 the Veg
2
  • Finely chop the chives (use scissors if you prefer). Zest and quarter the lemon. 
  • Trim the bottom of the asparagus and discard. Cut the asparagus into thirds, keep the tips separate. 
  • Trim the leek and halve lengthways. Thinly slice widthways. 
  • Place a pan over medium-high heat with a knob of butter.
  • Once melted, fry the asparagus tips until softened, for 4-5 mins. Remove from the pan and keep covered to keep warm.
Fry the Leek
3
  • Return the pan to medium heat, add another knob of butter and a drizzle of oil.
  • Once hot, add the sliced leek, the remaining asparagus, garlic and the herb mix, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Cook until softened, stirring occasionally, 6-8 mins.
  • Add the cream cheese, stock and 150ml (per 2P) of reserved pasta water to the veg and bring to a simmer. 
Cook the Prawns
4
  • Stir the prawns into the sauce. 
  • Simmer until 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. 
Finishing Touches
5
  • Toss the drained rigatoni through the sauce. 
  • Add another splash of water if the sauce needs loosening
  • Season to taste with lemon zest, a squeeze of lemon juice, salt and pepper.
Dish Up
6
  • Divide the asparagus and prawn pasta between plates.
  • Serve any remaining lemon wedges alongside.
  • Scatter over the chives and buttered asparagus tips.
