Cuban Spiced Prawn Linguine
Originally it was an olive oil based sauce dish with garlic, paprika, coriander leaf and lemon, orange and lime juices. The sauce, which emigrated with its people to the Caribbean, was adopted by Cubans and was made their own. It’s so versatile that it can be used on anything from marinating pork to making delicious dipping sauces. Give this Cuban pasta a try!
