Recipe: Pasta with Prawn and a Creamy Tomato Sauce

I found this recipe on The Pioneer Woman last night and thought I'd try it for dinner. I have to say it was probably the best seafood pasta I've tasted, though it seemed like there was a little something missing. I don't know if that was just because I didn't put much salt in - maybe that would have helped? 

Ingredients: (Serves 4)

• Penne Pasta - (I didnt measure it out but on the website it says 3/4lb)
  
• Handful of prawns/shrimp
  
• 3 Tablespoons Butter
• 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
• 1 Smal Onio
• 2 cloves Garlic
• ½ glass White Wine
• Tomato sauce such as Passata (I just used a can of chopped tomatoes and stuck them in the blender)
  
• 200ml Double Cream 
• Fresh Parsley, to taste
• Fresh Basil - To Taste
• Parmesan

Method: 

    1.    Put a pan of salted water on to boil. Fry the prawns in a pan with butter and olive oil till just cooked (dont overcook) then set them aside.

    2.    Finely chop the onion and garlic. Add to a large frying pan with butter and olive oil and stir till cooked. When the water is boiled add the pasta.

    3.    Chop the prawns into little cubes (remove the tails if they have any). Add the glass of wine to the pan and cook out. Add the tomato sauce and stir. Add the cream. Add the prawn when the pasta is ready (if it's not ready just keep the sauce on a low heat).

     4.    Finely slice the basil and chop the parsley and add to the sauce. Drain the pasta then add to the sauce. Stir then serve. Sprinkle some parmesan over the top.
