Ouzo Prawns
Ingredients:
½ lb. or 6 pcs. Colossal prawn tails
½ Fennel bulb sliced
2 Cloves garlic sliced
2 Tbsp. Diced onion
2 Tbsp. Butter
2 oz. Ouzo
3/4 cup Whipping cream
Sea salt and pepper to taste
Finely chopped parsley for garnish
Method:
Prepare the prawns by cutting the shell along the back and removing the vein. Season the prawns with salt and pepper. In a 9 inch sauté pan on medium heat add 1 tbsp butter, onion, garlic, fennel, and cook till the fennel is tender. Then add the other tbsp of butter, the prawns and cook until they just start to turn colour. At this time you can add the ouzo and continue to cook for one minute. Remove the prawns from the pan and add the whipping cream. Reduce the cream while stirring. When the cream starts to thicken, place the prawns back into the pan and cook till the prawns are done and the sauce has thickened. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with parsley.
