Levi Roots Valentine’s Day cooking

Learn how to make Levi Roots' famous king prawn and salmon linguini.

You will need:

  • 2 salmon fillets

  • 250g raw king prawns

  • ½ medium red onion – finely diced

  • 300ml crème fraiche

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • ½ bottle jerk sauce

  • 2 spring onions – finely chopped

  • 100ml white wine

  • 300g fresh linguini – or pasta of choice

  • 8 cherry tomatoes – halved

  • 50g spinach

1) Heat ½ the oil in a pan and lightly fry the salmon fillets, place on a baking tray and put under a medium heat grill for 25 minutes.
While the salmon is cooking heat the rest of the oil in a pan, sauté off the onions and add the prawns.

2) Pour over the white wine and Reggae Reggae/jerk sauce, leave to gently simmer.
Meanwhile bring a pan of salted water to the boil and add the pasta to cook for 6 minutes or until tender.

3) Stir the crème fraiche into the sauce along with the cherry tomatoes and spinach and take the salmon from under the grill. Gently flake it into the sauce using a fork (be careful to pick out any bones) and stir through.

4) Drain the pasta and place a pile on each plate, top with a generous helping of the sauce.
