    • 1 tsp minced Ginger
    • 1 tsp minced Garlic

    Directions

    1. Choose prawns with roes. Cut off sharp edge & feelers; devein prawns & rinse.
    2. To make butterflies, cut prawns into half leaving tail intact. Be careful not to lose the roes. Marinade with ginger & seasonings & arrange neatly on a plate. Top with garlic & spring onions.
