# Assam prawns recipe
|
|
|
|
## Raw jumbo prawns are not easy to find in Britain, but this works fine with
|
|
raw tiger prawns (choose organic prawns from M&S).

Serves 4
|
|
|
|
Cook them on a barbecue instead of in a pan, if you wish. If you cannot find
|
|
kecap manis, add a teaspoon of sugar to 1½ tablespoons of dark soy sauce.
|
|
|
|
_For the prawns_
|
|
|
|
3 tbsp kecap manis (Asian shops or [waiyeehong.com][3])
|
|
|
|
2cm piece of ginger, grated
|
|
|
|
8 raw jumbo prawns, shell on
|
|
|
|
1 tbsp groundnut oil, for frying
|
|
|
|
_For the okra salad_
|
|
|
|
2 tbsp groundnut oil
|
|
|
|
400g okra, sliced lengthways
|
|
|
|
1 tbsp tamarind paste (optional)
|
|
|
|
4 tomatoes, sliced very thinly
|
|
|
|
1 red or pink onion, sliced very thinly
|
|
|
|
the juice of 2 limes
|
|
|
|
a small handful of coriander leaves, chopped
|
|
|
|
Mix the kecap manis and the ginger in a shallow dish and roll the prawns
|
|
around in it. Leave to marinate in the fridge for an hour or more.
|
|
|
|
To make the okra salad, heat the groundnut oil in a pan over a high heat and
|
|
fry the okra until crisp. Transfer to a serving bowl and add the tamarind
|
|
paste (if using), tomatoes, onion, lime juice, coriander, salt and pepper. Mix
|
|
well and set aside.
|
|
|
|
Fry or grill the prawns in the tablespoon of groundnut oil on both sides until
|
|
the marinade has evaporated and the shells are pink and charred. Serve each
|
|
person with two prawns on top of some okra salad, with a lime wedge alongside.

**Hamish Anderson's wine choice** 2007 Extra Special Chardonnay, Adelaide
|
|
Hills, South Australia £6.78, Asda. This dish is not strongly spiced, so you
|
|
can try a grape such as chardonnay, not usually a bedfellow of spicy food.
|
|
This reminds me of a turbo-charged Chablis; its rich, mineral elements make a
|
|
great match for meaty prawns.
