Ingredients
- 225g Prawns
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 Garlic clove, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 325g Fettuccine
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 tbsp Plain flour
- 1/2 cup Dry white wine
- 1 cup a2 Milk® Full Cream
- 3/4 cup Grated pecorino
- 1/4 cup Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
- Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
- Heat oil in a medium-sized fry pan until shimmering. Add garlic, prawns, salt and pepper and stir to combine.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until prawns are pink and cooked through. Prawns cook very quickly, so keep an eye on them. They shouldn’t take more than 5 or 6 minutes!
- Cook fettuccine in very salty water until al dente. Drain, set aside, and return empty pot to the stove.
- Heat oil in pot over medium heat. When oil is warm, whisk in flour to form a roux. Cook for 1 minute.
- Slowly add white wine to roux, whisking constantly to incorporate. The mixture will thicken quickly. Just keep whisking!
- Add a2 Milk® Full Cream to mixture and whisk to combine. Bring mixture to a low simmer, whisking frequently, then remove from heat and stir in salt, pepper, and cheese. Stir until cheese has melted into the sauce.
- Add cooked pasta and prawns to sauce pot and toss to combine. Top with fresh chopped parsley for garnish and serve immediately.
