“Hi Nagi, Thanks for another great recipe. I am just a little confused about prawns, and I live in FNQ. All the seafood shops and fishermen I have spoken to say ALL prans are either FROZEN or BOILED at sea on the ship. There is no such thing as a fresh praw” — a cook, 5.0★
“This is my go to garlic prawn recipe and we eat it regularly. Tonight, I didnt have wine or parsley but I had basil and vodka on hand so that is what we subbed. DELICIOUS!! Thanks Nagi and big hugs to Dozer who is ever present 💞” — a cook, 5.0★
