Whole wheat pasta for 3 pax
salt
Chicken stock - 1 cube

12 shelled prawns (Leave the tail shell on)
1 teaspoon of chili flakes
Salt & Pepper to taste
1 teaspoon of lemon juice
1 teaspoon of mince garlic

1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoon of mince garlic

Boil water for the pasta. Once water is boiled, add salt & chicken stock and boil pasta for at least 12 minutes for whole wheat pasta or until al dente.

While pasta is boiling, grill the prawns for 2 minutes a side.

Once pasta is cooked, toss and set aside.

In a pan, heat up the olive oil in low fire and once the olive oil is hot, fry the garlic for at least a minute and add the chili flakes and anchovies. Break the anchovies to pieces with your spatula until the anchovies melt in your oil. Make sure the garlic doesn't turn brown.
