Instructions:
-
Begin by blanching the snow peas. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil, then add the snow peas and cook for exactly one minute. Immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process and refresh their color and crunch. Drain the snow peas and set them aside.
-
In the meantime, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the fettuccine and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Once cooked, drain the pasta and set it aside.
-
Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Next, add the prawns to the pan. Cook the prawns for 2-3 minutes, or until they turn pink and opaque. Remove the prawns from the pan and set them aside.
-
Return the frying pan to the heat. Add the chopped oregano and thyme to the pan, followed by the heavy cream. Stir to combine, allowing the cream to heat through and take on the flavors of the herbs.
-
Add the blanched snow peas to the cream sauce and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, just until the snow peas are warmed through.
-
Return the cooked prawns to the pan, stirring gently to combine. Add the sliced mangoes and continue to cook for another minute, allowing the mangoes to warm slightly but retain their vibrant texture.
-
Toss the cooked fettuccine with the creamy sauce mixture, ensuring that the pasta is evenly coated with the luscious sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
Serve immediately, garnishing with additional fresh herbs if desired. Enjoy this exquisite combination of flavors that’s both light and satisfying!
Enjoy your delicious meal with the perfect blend of sweet mango, tender prawns, and crisp snow peas, all atop a bed of fettuccine! 🌟🍤🍍
