Bangkok Prawns - BC spot prawns

BC spot prawns are in season from May to June, but available frozen year round.  You can also prepare this with any good quality fresh or frozen prawns or large shrimp. 



Bangok Prawns - a quick and easy dish with an impressive flavor.
 Start with 1 lb fresh or frozen prawns, cleaned and peeled - if you can get them straight from the dock like these it is fantastic, but quick frozen will do just fine. This will serve three to four people.


1tsp lemon juice
1 clove fresh garlic, peeled and chopped
2tsp extra virgin olive oil
2tsp Real Thai spice blend from SultanaSpice
                                                                                    OR
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp turmeric
1tsp dried lemon grass
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp dried ginger 
1/4 tsp red chili flakes, or to taste

1/2 tsp black pepper
1 cup sliced onion
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded, and finely sliced
1 cup red pepper, sliced fine
½ cup green pepper, sliced fine
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

Have all ingredients prepared, this is a very quick dish.

Place the peeled prawns in a bowl, toss with the garlic and lemon juice, and 1tsp of Real Thai spice blend

Heat a shallow pan on medium-high, and add the olive oil. Immediately add the prawns and all other ingredients, except the cilantro. Using a spatula or bamboo paddle, keep stirring the ingredients over medium high heat, just until the prawns become pink and opaque. Add the cilantro, stir, and serve with steamed rice.
