Method

  • step 1

    Cook the linguine following pack instructions. Meanwhile, put the chorizo in a cold frying pan over a low heat, then gradually increase it. Enough oil will be released by the chorizo to brown it without adding extra.

  • step 2

    Stir and fry the chorizo until it is completely frazzled, then lift it out onto a plate.

  • step 3

    Add the capers to the frying pan and cook for 1 min. Scoop them out and discard any excess oil.

  • step 4

    Drain the pasta and add the chorizo and capers along with the lemon juice and rocket. Season and toss everything together.

I used this as a base recipe as I thought it lacked flavour. I added some chilli and garlic, a grated courgette (water drained), some prawns and creme fraiche, much tastier!

After reading the comments on this recipe, I added a couple of table spoons of creme fraiche as well as reducing the lemon juice. It would have been fairly dry without the creme fraiche as other people mentioned. Very yummy in the end.

Like others have said there is definitely something missing from this dish although annoyingly I couldn’t put my finger on what it was. I like all the components and usually love anything with chorizo in. Definitely not something I’ll eat again.

Great recipe but I think I will either half or leave out the lemon next time. Very tasty despite that.
