Method
step 1
Cook the pasta following pack instructions. Drain well, reserving a mugful of the cooking water.
step 2
Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large, lidded saucepan. Add the garlic and chilli, season and cook for 2 mins over a low heat until fragrant. Tip in the wine and mussels, tossing to combine. Increase the heat to medium, cover tightly with a lid and cook for 2 mins.
step 3
Add the prawns and cream, stir to combine, then cover again and cook for 2-3 mins until the prawns are pink and cooked through. If any mussels haven’t opened at this point, discard.
step 4
Mix the cooked pasta into the sauce with the lemon juice and parsley. Add a splash of the reserved cooking water and cook for 1 min until the sauce is creamy and glossy. The sauce will be quite loose which is what you want – perfect for soaking up with crusty bread!
step 5
Serve in bowls with an extra drizzle of olive oil.
