Iconic Aussie Bbq Prawns Shrimp Recipes

Steps:

• Make the sauce: Mix the mayonnaise, chili sauce, honey, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1 tablespoon water in a large bowl; set aside.
• Prepare the shrimp: Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F. Meanwhile, whisk the eggs in a shallow bowl. Whisk the flour, cornstarch and 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper in another shallow bowl.
• Working in batches, dredge the shrimp in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess, dip in the beaten eggs, then return to the flour mixture, turning to form a thick crust. Fry the shrimp in the hot oil until lightly golden, 1 to 2 minutes, adjusting the heat as needed to maintain the oil temperature. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate with a slotted spoon.
• Toss the shrimp with the prepared sauce. Arrange the lettuce in a shallow serving bowl or on individual plates. Top with the shrimp and garnish with scallions.

Steps:

• Mix everything together in a glass or ceramic bowl.
• Marinate for 30 - 60 minutes (while you make a salad, slice the bread, set the table and get the barbie heated up).
• You can either throw the prawns on just like this OR you can thread them onto skewers - either works.
• Cook over a medium heat until the prawns are lovely and orange - don't over cook or they will be woody and chewy.
• Serve with a salad and bread.

Steps:

• Peel the prawns leaving the tails intact.
• Heat the oil in a wok or heavy based pan. Add the garlic and ginger and cook for 30 seconds.
• Stir-fry the prawns until pink, cooking in two batches.Return all of the prawns to the pan and stir in the honey and the soy or tamari sauce.
• Serve on a bed of boiled rice and sprinkle with sliced shallots or chopped coriander and sesame seeds.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 220dC.
• Heat oil in an ovenproof pan and cook onion and fennel seeds for 4 minutes on medium heat.
• Add spring onions and stir well.
• Add garlic, tomatoes, wine and oregano and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Stir in prawns, the drained white or borlotti beans and half the parsley.
• Season with salt and pepper and dot with feta.
• Cook in the preheated oven until the prawns are cooked (about 10 minutes).
• Sprinkle with remaining parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Mix all the seasoning mix ingredients in a food processor and set aside.
• Stored in a sealed container, it will keep indefinitely for future use.
• Blend the garlic, olive oil, 2 T seasoning mix, lemon juice, honey, and soy sauce in a bowl.
• Add the prawns and the chopped parsley to the mixture and toss well to coat.
• Refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat oven to 500°F.
• Place prawns with the marinade in a large, heavy skillet (large enough to fit prawns in a single layer or cook in batches) and place in oven.
• In about 2 to 3 minutes, shake the pan to ensure even cooking and repeat in another 2 to 3 minutes.
• At this point the mixture should be bubbling and the prawns will be turning opaque.
• Transfer the pan to a stovetop, over medium heat and begin adding the butter in 1 to 2 T increments, shaking the pan the entire time, allowing the butter to emulsify into the mixture before adding any more butter.
• This process should take about 4 to 5 minutes.
• When completed, pour onto a platter and serve immediately with plenty of good, crispy bread.
