Prep Time:
10 minutes
Cook Time:
5 minutes
Serves:
2
Garlic Prawns
Ingredients
8 cloves garlic, crushed and chopped
8 - 10 green tiger prawns, tail on
Good quality olive oil
Passata (Italian tomato simmering sauce)
A handful of sliced basil
Salt
Fresh chilli (optional)
Method
Put 1/2 inch oil in a cast iron tapas pan along with garlic
Cook over medium/low heat until the garlic softens a little. Make sure the pan isn't too hot, as you don't want to brown the garlic
Add prawns and salt. Cook prawns for about a minute on side and turn over
After another minute turn up heat and add Passata (add chilli now if you like). Bring to a simmer for one minute
Turn off heat, stir through basil and check for seasoning
Serve immediately in the pan so the prawns stay hot
Tips & Hints
For great flavor and texture look for tiger prawns or king prawns. Invest in good quality cast ironware such as Oigen.
