Ingredients

Instructions

  • Cook the linguine or spaghetti in plenty of lightly salted boiling water for 6-8 minutes until just tender, or follow pack instructions.
  • Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a saucepan and gently fry the chilli until softened - about 1 minute. Add the soft cheese and milk. Heat gently, stirring constantly with a small whisk or wooden spoon until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth. Remove from the heat and stir occasionally.
  • Drain the cooked pasta then return it to the saucepan. Add the crab, capers and cheese sauce. Heat for a few moments, stirring gently. Season with freshly ground black pepper, then share between 4 warm plates or bowls. Serve sprinkled with the Parmesan cheese and basil leaves.
