This vibrant seafood dish celebrates the short but beautiful wild garlic season. Known for its mellow, earthy heat, wild garlic — or ramps — provides a sophisticated alternative to standard bulb garlic. By sautéing the bulbs slowly in olive oil and white wine, you create a fragrant base that perfectly complements succulent, pan-fried prawns. The addition of mild red pepper flakes provides a gentle warmth that balances the acidity of the fresh lemon juice, resulting in a light yet indulgent meal that feels truly seasonal.
As a dairy-free recipe that relies on high-quality olive oil and fresh produce, this dish is an excellent choice for a quick midweek supper or an elegant weekend lunch. Serve the prawns on a large platter in the centre of the table with plenty of warm, crusty bread to soak up the garlic-infused wine sauce. It is a simple, healthy way to enjoy fresh shellfish with a distinctively British spring twist.

Ingredients for prawns Ramp-y
45ml extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 bunch ramps (about 170g ), bulbs and greens separated, bulbs halved lengthwise, greens torn into (2"–3") pieces
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoons mild red pepper flakes (such as Maras, Urfa, or Aleppo-style), plus more for serving

How to make prawns Ramp-y
Combine 45ml oil and ramp bulbs in a large skillet. Set over medium heat and cook, tossing occasionally, until bulbs are softened but have not taken on any colour, 6–8 minutes. Add garlic and 1/2 teaspoons mild red pepper flakes and cook, tossing occasionally, until garlic is softened, about 3 minutes. Add wine and increase heat to medium-high. Let cook, stirring occasionally, until wine is reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add ramp greens, prawns, and butter to pan. Season with salt and cook, tossing occasionally, until ramp greens are wilted, prawns turn pink, and butter is melted, about 3 minutes. Remove skillet from heat. Finely grate zest from lemon half over prawns, then squeeze in juice.
Transfer prawns to a platter. Sprinkle with more mild red pepper flakes and drizzle with plenty of oil.
