    1 In a large pot of boiling water, cook tagliatelle for 6-8 minutes, until al dente. Drain, reserving a cup of pasta water.

    2 In a frying pan, heat half the olive oil over medium-high. Add garlic, spring onion and capsicum and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add paprika and stir to coat vegetables. Add prawns and stir-fry another 2 minutes, until prawns are just cooked.

    3 Add cherry tomatoes and stir. Add a dash of pasta water. Add spinach and stir until wilted. Simmer for a few minutes more, until tomatoes have softened.

    4 Add pasta to pan, along with a little more pasta water. Stir to coat pasta with sauce. Add thyme and black pepper.

    5 To serve, divide pasta between 2 plates, garnished with extra thyme and pepper.
