    Cook prawns, butter and garlic in a pan. When nearly cooked throw in a hand full of shredded fresh basil and fresh breadcrumbs.

    Enjoy!

    Garlic cream prawns Perfected
    I've been try to make the perfect garic cream prawns for years.
    I spoke to my brother the other day about not quite getting it right and he gave me this receipe [he's a cheff] .

    Green prawns peeled fresh crushed garic olive oil.
    allow to maranaid for 4hr or more.

    Boil water add pasta till cooked.
    In a pan add prawns and maranaid and start cooking.
    Then use a white wine a splash here and there while cooking the prawns.
    It stops the garlic from burning and adds a new flavour.
    When cooked add cream more splashes of white wine.
    Drain pasta put back into pot add cream more wine and prawn mix and serve.

    I had this tonight and it is the best I've ever had.


    13 green prawns
    2 cloves of garlic
    20 to 50 ml of olive oil.?
    50 to 100 ml white wine ??
    150 ml cream.?
    Salt
    1 Bowl of cooked pasta.

    All adjustable to your own tast.

    1st trick is not to over cook the prawns, this can easily be done by the following method:
    Creamy garlic bisque prawns.
    Buy some large green prawns with the head n all..
    Take the heads and the shell off leaving the tail on, place the shells in a pot with a diced onion splash of white wine and a tomato.. put two cups of water in and boil it till there is half a cup of liquid left.
    While the stock is boiling marinate the prawns in fresh garlic (not the jar crap) with a bit of olive oil..
    in a good sized pan put the stock in and boil it to reduce it by half again, add 600ml or so of cream and reduce this also by half... at this stage the "sauce" is nearing sauce consistancy... DONT add stuff like flour it wrecks it add the prawns as there is prob only about 4mins left till its ready, add some chopped parley right at the end and serve with either pasta or rice.. garlic should be the main flavour but you will also enhance the sauce by the addition of the prawn stock... it tastes awesome.

    Sounds more complicated than it is.. total cook time should be about 20mins...works even better with stuff like red claw and crayfish
