Method

  • step 1

    Cook the pasta according to pack instructions. Tip in the runner beans and sweetcorn (if using fresh or frozen) for the final 4 mins of the pasta cooking time. Drain and set aside.

  • step 2

    Mix the fromage frais and pesto together, then pour into the same saucepan, along with the prawns. (If you’re using canned sweetcorn, add it now.) Warm through briefly over a low heat, then tip in the pasta and veg. Take off the heat, toss together and sprinkle with coriander, if using.

Nice, will do again. Will leave out prawns as for me, they didn't add anything. Goes well with a sharp salad. My other half asked for sliced chicken on top next time, which would work well.

Won't blow you away but a good quick standby with what we generally always have in. (can use frozen green beans if needed). Always cook extra to put in school lunch boxes the next day

This was really lovely. Very quick to make and a good deep flavour too. I used half-fat creme fraiche instead of the fromage frais. Really enjoyed.

Quick, easy and very tasty. Couldn't find coriander pesto so used rocket pesto instead which worked well. Also sprinkled with freshly grated parmesan to finish, yummy! A big hit with me and everyone I've cooked it for!

We love this dish. And its so quick to boot. I changed the coriander pesto to hot chilli pesto which gives the dish a bit of a kick. I also added some anchovies into the mix too, with a bit of parmesand and pepper sprinkled on at the end. Yum!
