PRAWNS – BBQ – How to……..

Hi All, I notice that ‘cooking prawns’ seems to be one of the ‘asked’ questions, ‘how to cook on a BBQ?’

Shell first put them on a skewer, like the picture – Cook them slowly with extra virgin olive oil and S & P, on the grill of your BBQ on medium heat, it takes about 30/45 seconds each side no more…serve with lemon juice or cocktail sauce* or sweet chilli sauce

Alternatively, toss the shelled prawns in Extra Virgin Olive Oil, salt and cracked pepper, place on a preheated clean BBQ plate at medium heat for 30/45 seconds, turn for 30 seconds, splash with lime or lemon juice, serve……

TIP *easy – mayonaisse and Tomato ketchup to colour and flavour, a little Lea Perrins (worcestershire sauce) give it that sharpness!

    Pizza Base Recipe – I get asked for recipes all the time and found that I haven’t done one for a Pizza base so I thought I would put this one on the Website. Its not hard, just follow the recipe and surprisingly, it works!!

    This pizza dough can be made by hand with 5 to 10 minutes of kneading, or the lazier way is to use a mixer with a dough hook for a few minutes (a lot faster!) It makes a pizza crust…
