Cooking Instructions
Instructions for 2 people (double for 4)
1
Run a small knife along the back of the king prawns, cutting halfway through (make sure not to cut the whole way through) to butterfly the prawns
2
Peel and finely chop the garlic
3
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium-high heat
Once hot, add the chopped garlic and cook for 30 sec or until fragrant
4
Once fragrant, add the butterflied prawns and chilli flakes (Can't handle the heat? Go easy!) for 3 min or until they're cooked through – these are your garlic chilli prawns
Once done, transfer the prawns to a bowl and set them aside to cool
5
Meanwhile, cut the roots from the little gem lettuce[s] and separate the leaves
Pick 6 [12] of the biggest lettuce leaves – these are your lettuce cups
6
Cut the lime[s]into wedges
Slice the red chilli[es] finely
7
Add the chilli jam to the cooled prawns and give everything a good mix up – these are your sweet chilli prawns
