Ingredients 250g Delverde fettuccini no. 81 Table salt, for pasta water 24 large prawn cutlets 2 zucchini, grated 4 birds eye chillies, finely sliced 5 cloves garlic, chopped ½ bunch flat leaf parsley, washed and chopped finely, stem and leaf Thyme sprigs 100ml white wine 150ml olive oil Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste Recipe by Adam D'Sylva Photography by Kristoffer Paulsen Method 1. In a large pot of boiling water, add salt to taste like the sea. Add fettuccini and cook until 3/4 done. Reserve 2 cups of pasta water before straining pasta. 2. In a heavy-based pot, sauté chillies and garlic with olive oil until aromatic. Deglaze with white wine. Add zucchini and thyme. 3. Add 1 cup of pasta water. Cook zucchini until it becomes tender and breaks down. Add more pasta water, then prawns, pasta and parsley. 4. Constantly stir until the prawns are cooked and pasta is coated in sauce. 5. Check for seasoning – there should be enough salt from the pasta water – and add freshly cracked pepper before serving.
