Instructions

  1. 1

    Trim the whiskers and sharp rostrum from the prawns, rinse, and pat dry.

  2. 2

    Spread coarse salt evenly in a pan and preheat over medium heat for 2 minutes.

  3. 3

    Place prawns on the salt and grill 3-4 minutes per side until shells turn bright red.

  4. 4

    Warm butter, minced garlic, and olive oil in a small pan for 1 minute to make garlic butter.

  5. 5

    Brush the grilled prawns lightly with garlic butter, sprinkle pepper, and serve with lemon.

Tips

Keep the salt bed about 1 cm thick to prevent scorching.
Remove as soon as the shell color fully changes to avoid rubbery texture.
