How to cook delicious Avocado Prawns Pasta with fresh tomatoes?

*Scroll for the Printable Recipe Card if you want to skip the tips. 


Recently, I am very into Avocado because I chanced upon some articles on its amazing health benefits. It is rich in vitamins, protects the heart, reduces blood pressure and inflammation. 

I tried to make an avocado spread with olive oil and tomato juice - amazingly delicious. Then, I was curious. What else can I cook with avocado? Pasta! It turns out that Avocado Pasta, though not common in restaurants, is very common among online recipes. I invented my own according to my taste buds and it was delicious. 


Prawns Pasta with Avocado Sauce and fresh tomatoes

Olive Oil
I always use olive oil meant for everyday cooking such as this. For olive oil meant to be drizzled directly onto pastas or salads, I always go for a good quality one such as the Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Italy. It is sold at NTUC Finest.

Prawns
I always soak my deshelled prawns in salted water for 30 min to enhance the freshness. The flesh also tastes firmer.

Avocados
By the way, do you know how to choose avocados? I did not and ended up with rotten ones as I thought that I should go for the soft ones. For my second batch, I chose dark and hard ones. Perfect!

Fresh Tomatoes chunks

It is important to include fresh tomatoes chunks into an avocado pasta to balance the dish by providing that slight sourish kick, cutting through the creamy sauce.

Avocado Mash
I mashed the avocado with a metal fork and spoon because I prefer such texture as compared to a blended one. 

I love my Avocado Prawns Pasta with Tomatoes and I hope you will enjoy it too! Feel free to share my post with your fellow friends who love to cook wholesome food.
