Linguine with Prawns, Chilli & Garlic

Linguine is like spaghetti only slightly flatter so not as rounded. It goes great with seafood especially crab and prawns.

This is a really easy dish to make and doesn’t take much time at all so makes a great lunch or even a dinner for those days when you are too busy to make something more complicated.

The main ingredient in this dish is pasta so try buy the best quality pasta that you can find. My favourite is De Cecco followed by Barilla, look for the ones containing egg or all’uovo which means with egg. Personally, I wouldn’t make this dish using a cheap pasta as it won’t be very nice. You really will notice a massive difference if you use a good quality pasta.

I really like the selection of cheese available to us here in Ireland so try to use an Irish cheese over parmesan whenever I can. Mossfield Organic Farmhouse Cheese is one of my favourites to use instead of parmesan and I love supporting small Irish producers when possible.
