About

CostCo had some gorgeous Black Tiger Prawns last week. I got 16 of them, which was just slightly over a pound. I knew that I didn’t want to fuss with them very much, and I wanted them to retain their natural sweetness and succulence. So, I prepared them very simply. Easy, quick and delicious – what more could you want in a meal. I served these as an accompaniment to tri-tip steak. They were devoured quite quickly.

2 for main course, 4 as accompaniment
