Simple grilled prawns from award winning Ho Chi Minh City chef Quach Thien Tuong. I found the recipe in ” Street Cafe Vietnam” by Annabel Jackson. Use the freshest prawns you can find, and add a spoonful of water if you find that the dip is too tart for your taste.
This recipe from Tetouan, Morocco is one of my favourite ways with prawns. The prawns should be ready to use at room temperature to ensure they heat up thoroughly in the time it takes the eggs to cook. Its from ” Street Cafe Morocco” by Anissa Helou.
Another favourite from Bengal which I found in Asma Khan’s ” Ammu”. With British and Portuguese influences recipes like this would have originated as railway meals for the colonial elite, but later spread to the general public.
A Bengali dish from Asma Khan’s ” Ammu” whicj is served with rice and dal. You need to use standard white potatoes, not new potatoes or floury ones. If you cant find small prawns use larger ones and cut them into 1 cm pieces.
