  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 100g sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 125.00 gm white wine
  • 255.00 gm chicken stock

  • 20.00 gm butter
  • 500g raw tiger prawns, deveined and peeled

Instructions:
  • - Bring a large pot of salted water to a vigorous boil. - Add pasta and a drizzle of olive oil. - Cook until pasta is tender.
  • Set aside approximately 1/2 cup of the pasta water before draining. Keep the pasta warm.
  • Prepare the pasta sauce by melting butter over medium heat in a frying pan. Sauté mushrooms and onions until they are soft and golden, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in chopped garlic and sun-dried tomatoes and cook for another minute.
  • Pour in the wine and let it come to a vigorous boil for 1 minute. Follow by stirring in the chicken stock, then reduce the heat to a gentle simmer for a few minutes.
  • Add the cream and bring to a gentle boil, stirring constantly to thicken the sauce. Reduce the heat to low.
  • In a skillet over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter to prepare the garlic prawns.
  • Add prawns and cook for a couple of minutes until they turn pink. Stir in 1 clove of chopped garlic and cook for an additional minute, making sure it doesn't burn. Flip prawns over once while cooking.
  • Toss fettuccine with pasta sauce to ensure each strand is coated. Use pasta water to adjust sauce consistency as needed.
  • Stir in green onions and fresh parsley into the sauce, gently mix, and then remove from heat.
  • Plate the fettuccine alongside the succulent prawns and sprinkle with freshly grated parmesan. Season to perfection with a touch of salt and pepper.
