1
  • Boil the kettle. Pour boiled water into a large saucepan over high heat with a pinch of salt.

2
  • Meanwhile, roughly chop cucumber.
  • In a small bowl, combine hot sauce, tomato relish and the mayonnaise. Set aside.
3
  • While the pasta is cooling, in a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • Cook peeled prawns, tossing, until pink and starting to curl up, 3-4 minutes.
  • In the last minute, add paprika spice blend, tossing to coat.
4
  • In a large bowl, combine cooled penne, gourmet leaf mix, cucumber, a drizzle of olive oil and vinegar. Season to taste.
  • Divide pasta salad between bowls.
  • Top with prawns and drizzle over Marie Rose dressing to serve.
  • Crumble over fetta. Enjoy!
