Another recipe to awaken your taste buds and surprise your spouse for Valentine's Day. Tiger prawns come from tropical waters, especially Southeast Asia, and arrive raw at our market stalls. The curry in this recipe comes from Indian long pepper mixed with eggs. It's not curry powder but a homemade paste that clings well to the flesh.
Ingredients for 4 servings
- 12 large raw tiger prawns
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon dried basil
- 2 tablespoons curry
- 3 hard-boiled egg yolks, chopped (keep the whites to chop and add to the salad too)
- 1 yellow lemon
For the soy sprout salad:
- 7 oz (200 g) fresh soy sprouts, blanched (plunged in boiling water until boiling resumes)
- 0.7 oz (20 g) fresh ginger, peeled and cut into small dice
- 2 tablespoons cider vinegar*
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- A little chopped chives
