Gamberi Alla Busara (Quick Italian Prawns) | Cooking with Napolina

'Alla busara' means 'thrown together quickly' in Italian. @Cooking with Napolina 's Gamberi Alla Busara may be easy to make, but with juicy prawns and a ricotta ciabatta to mop up sauce, it's simple Venetian cooking at its best

Ingredients (Serves 2)
3 tbsp Napolina Extra Virgin Olive Oil plus a little extra to drizzle
3 garlic cloves, finely sliced
1 medium white onion, finely chopped
400g large, raw whole prawns, deveined
40ml dry white wine
1 small chilli, finely chopped
400g Napolina Selezione Speciale Cherry Tomatoes
20ml Napolina Balsamic Vinegar
1 tbsp sugar

Large handful parsley roughly, chopped (plus extra to serve)
To serve
Toasted ciabatta sliced for dipping
70g ricotta

Method
Heat your Napolina Extra Virgin Olive Oil in a large, deep pan over a medium-high heat. Add the garlic, cook for 1 min stirring often.
Reduce the heat to medium, add the onion and cook until soft and translucent stirring regularly.
Add the wine and increase the heat to high and cook until the wine has evaporated.
Reduce to a low-medium heat and add the chilli, Napolina Cherry Tomatoes, Napolina Balsamic Vinegar and sugar. Cook until broken down and a chunky sauce has formed. Remember to taste and season with salt and pepper.
Lay slices of ciabatta bread on a baking tray, spread each slice with a little ricotta, drizzle with Napolina extra virgin olive oil and pop under the grill for a couple of mins.
