Ingredients

140g dried pasta, preferably wholemeal,
85g frozen pea,
85g frozen broad bean, podded if you like,
100g broccoli, cut into small florets,
100g cooked and peeled prawn,
1 lemon, ½ zest and juice, ½ cut into wedges,
3 tbsp light mascarpone,
½ small bunch mint or basil,
leaves, shredded, plus a few whole leaves to serve,

Instructions

Cook the pasta following pack instructions, adding the vegetables 4 mins before the end of the cooking time, and the prawns just as the cooking time is up. Reserve a mug of the water, then drain everything and tip back into the pan.

Tip in the lemon zest and juice, and the mascarpone, and heat through, adding enough of the pasta water to create a creamy sauce. Scatter in the shredded mint or basil, a good grinding of black pepper and a little salt. Divide between 2 warmed pasta bowls, scatter over the herb leaves and serve with lemon wedges.
