When there's shrimps cooking away on the barbie, I'm never far away.
As you can probably tell, I'm a big fan of prawns and can never quite get enough of them. Whether they're used for stir-fries, in salads or even as a sashimi in Japanese cuisine, I just love them.
This fabulous recipe of prawns, quail eggs, celery and wonderful summer fruits of lychee, mangoes and papaya (paw paw) is simply divine. The combination of textures in this dish makes it a stand-out for me and one that you must try.
