Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 5

400g spaghetti
2 long red chillies
100ml extra-virgin olive oil , plus extra
200g bag frozen, shelled cooked prawn , defrosted
2x50g bags wild rocket

Steps:

  • Cook the spaghetti in boiling salted water according to pack instructions.
  • While the spaghetti is cooking, split the chillies down the centre lengthways. Using a teaspoon and starting at the top, scoop the seeds from the flesh - add these if you like your food hot. Using a sharp knife, cut the chillies in thin strips, bundle them together and cut across to make squares.
  • Drain the spaghetti, toss with a drizzling of olive oil and set aside. Heat the oil in a deep frying pan or sauté pan over a high heat and add the prawns. Stir in the chillies, season, then add the spaghetti. Remove from the heat, fold through the rocket and stir.
