    A typical Sicilian first course, perfect for holiday tables.

    Ingredients for 4 people
    • 400 g of Armando paccheri
    • 1 kg of dried broad beans
    • 15 prawns
    • Salt to taste
    • Pepper to taste
    • Extra virgin olive oil to taste
    • Onion to taste
    • Garlic to taste
    • Chili pepper to taste
    Preparation

    First, soak the dried beans overnight.

    Then cook them together with the onion, the water and simmer slowly over low heat until you obtain a thick cream.

    In a pan, place the previously cleaned prawns for about 3 minutes, along with the garlic and chili pepper.

    Cook the Armando paccheri in plenty of lightly salted boiling water. When they're al dente, season them with the broad bean cream and prawns.

    Finish with a grind of pepper and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.

    Enjoy your meal!
