Best 4 Golden Summer Prawns Recipes

JAPANESE STEAKHOUSE GOLDEN SHRIMP

Steps:

• Whisk egg yolks until smooth. Slowly drizzle the oil, a few drops at time, whisking continuously, until mixture resembles a thick custard. Slowly add rice vinegar, salt, garlic powder, and saffron, mixing until well combined. Cover your golden sauce and refrigerate until flavors meld, 8 hours to overnight.
• Place shrimp on a flat work surface. Slice each horizontally through the middle, being careful not to cut all the way through to the other side. Open the 2 sides and spread them out like an open book. Pat dry with paper towels.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Arrange shrimp in a circle in the skillet, with tails touching. Spoon about 1 heaping teaspoon golden sauce over each shrimp. Add white wine; cover with a lid and steam until sauce becomes fluffy, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove shrimp carefully with a slotted spatula onto serving plates.

GARLIC PRAWNS

Steps:

• In a glass dish, mix together the olive oil, mustard, garlic, lemon juice, orange juice, basil and white wine. Add the prawns, and stir to coat. Cover, and let marinate for 1 hour.
• Heat an outdoor grill to high heat.
• Thread prawns onto skewers. Grill for 3 to 5 minutes, turning once, until pink.
• If desired, reserve marinade; transfer to a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Serve with prawns.

VIETNAMESE PRAWN SUMMER ROLLS

Steps:

• Make the dipping sauce by pounding the garlic, chilli, ginger and sugar together using a pestle and mortar, then stir in the fish sauce and lime juice. Alternatively, just blitz everything together in a mini blender.
• Soak the rice noodles in a bowl of hot water for 15 mins, then drain well. Assemble all the prepared filling ingredients - once you start, you will need everything to hand.
• When you are ready to make the rolls, dip one of the rice papers in a bowl of hot water, moving it around until the whole wrapper is soft - about 10-15 secs - then drain on a tea towel.
• Place a rice paper wrapper on a board and at one edge of the wrapper, add a few mint leaves, then three prawn halves.
• Place some lettuce on top of the prawns, followed by some noodles, a few strips of carrot and cucumber, some more herbs and finally some beansprouts. Don't overfill the pancakes or they will be hard to roll.
• Lift the edge of the rice paper wrapper nearest to you over the filling and, holding the filling in position with your fingers, start rolling up tightly.
• When you're about halfway, fold the ends of the rice paper in and over the filling so that it is completely enclosed.
• Keep on rolling tightly until the whole rice paper wrapper is rolled up. To serve, cut the rolls in half on the diagonal.

• Summer roll: Place all ingredients except rice paper in a bowl with the white vinegar and sugar. Reconstitute rice paper with the hot water. Fill paper with vegetables, crab and sausage. Roll up and slice into 2 pieces. Repeat with remaining rice papers.;
• Sweet and sour sauce: Cut pineapple, put in blender and strain out the juice. Add the juice, vinegar, sugar and Sriracha to a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Combine the cornstarch and water and slowly add to the simmering sauce. When thickened, remove from the heat. Chill and pout into a squeeze bottle.
• Scallion-Cilantro Puree: Put all ingredients for puree in blender, blend until smooth and pour into squeeze bottle.
• Prawns: Split tails open on the prawns and remove antennas. Crush the Szechwan peppercorns and season prawns along with the salt. Add the oil to a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once heated add the prawns, remove the head and drizzle juices on tail.
• Garnish: Plate mache, top with summer roll slightly off center and a prawn. Dust all with gold leaf and sauce the plate with scallion-cilantro puree. Dot plate with sweet and sour sauce and garnish prawn tails with edible orchid.
