Get all your ingredients together.
Good quality Italian linguine, dry or fresh
Cooked prawns
Easy chilli. To your taste
Salt and pepper
Green pepper finely cubed or any colour you may have
Baby colourful tomatoes washed and cut in half
Two cloves of garlic crushed or sliced. Whatever you prefer.
A whole lemon juiced
A bunch of washed and chopped flat leaf parsley.
Large spoonful of paprika, sweet or spicy according to your taste.
Boil a large pan of water and add salt and sunflower oil. Add linguine for the time advised on the packet. Same for the mussels.
In a frying pan put a tablespoon of olive oil, add the garlic over a low heat. A touch of ginger paste wouldn’t go amiss if you have some in the fridge. Add the peppers, tomatoes and seasonings including paprika and chilli.
At the last minute add the prawns, lemon juice and chopped parsley.
Drain the mussels and add to the frying pan. Add the linguine including a little of the cooking liquor if possible.
Serve in large soup bowls with crispy bread.
