This is a nice change from regular old pasta with tomato sauce. You can serve a large portion as a main dish, or I've even used this as my 'salad' at dinner parties. Really simple!

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. The sauce lacked flavor and the prawns were overcooked. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This garlic pasta with prawns was a hit with my family! The prawns were cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful and creamy. I added a bit of extra garlic and red pepper flakes for a little kick. Will definitely be making this again!
