- Peel the king prawns then split in half, de-veining at the same time.
- Cook the spaghetti in plenty of salted water until 'al dente'.
- Meanwhile, put all the remaining ingredients (except a quarter of the fresh herbs) into a large frying pan and sauté over a medium heat for about 2 minutes. Put aside until the pasta is ready.
- Drain the pasta, allowing a little of the cooking water to remain, and put back into the pan.
- Gently reheat the seafood and mushroom sauce, add to the pasta and then toss quickly over a medium heat until they are well integrated and heated through.
- Serve immediately, sprinkled with the remaining fresh herbs.
