Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. • Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water. Add a generous pinch of salt and heat over high heat. • Cook orecchiette in the boiling water until ‘al dente’, 8 minutes. • Reserve some pasta water (1/4 cup for 2 people / 1/2 cup for 4 people), then drain orecchiette and return to pan.
• While the pasta is cooking, finely chop garlic. Roughly chop baby spinach leaves and celery. Thinly slice leek. • Zest lemon to get a pinch, then slice into wedges.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Cook prawns, celery and leek, tossing, until prawns are pink and starting to curl up, 3-4 minutes. • Reduce heat to medium, then add garlic & herb seasoning and garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Stir in cream (see ingredients), the salt, reserved pasta water and lemon zest until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. • Stir through cooked orecchiette, the baby spinach leaves, the butter and a generous squeeze of lemon juice until combined, 1 minute. Season with pepper.
• Divide creamy lemon and prawn orecchiette between bowls. Sprinkle with a pinch of chilli flakes (if using). • Tear over parsley and serve with any remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
