Silvia Colloca Instagram – Make the most of the last days of summer with this delicious prawn gratin! Cooked with ❤️ on my @essteeleau
Prawns gratin with pangrattato
1 cup (70 g) fresh breadcrumbs
1–2 handfuls flat-leaf parsley leaves, plus extra to serve
pinch of salt flakes
1 long red chilli (or bird’s eye, if you like it hot!)
1/2 clove garlic, peeled
1–2 small strips lemon rind
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
12 uncooked tiger prawns
lemon wedges, to serve
Turn on the grill function in your oven.
Place the breadcrumbs, parsley, salt, chilli, garlic, lemon rind and olive oil in a food processor and blitz for 6–10 seconds or until combined.
Cut the prawns in half lengthways and top each half with a bit of the breadcrumb mixture. Press gently with your hands to ensure the coating adheres to the prawn halves. Place the prawns on an oven pan (i used Per Vita) and drizzle a little more olive oil on top, then grill for 2–3 minutes or until golden.
Serve hot with lemon wedges and a generous handful of parsley leaves. | Posted on 26/Feb/2024 03:48:56
