Prawn Tails | Frozen Box | Wild caught | 2kg

Your Prawn tails will arrive frozen, simply store in your freezer (up to 3 months) and use at your leisure. It is best to remove product from packaging to defrost (do not thaw under vacuum/pressure). Simply place on a tray in your fridge and allow to thaw slowly. We are not able to butterfly or de vein prawns, as this would require defrosting and refreezing, which effects quality. These prawn tails are delivered shell on and vein in.

Any special requests or instructions can be left in the NOTES section at the Checkout. Eg: Your doorbell does not work, you require a phone call before the order arrives, you would like the fillets / steaks vacuum packed seperately or cut into smaller portions etc.

Our prawns are sourced from an Argentinian fishery that is in the final stages of MSC certification. This is in line with efforts by this body to help reduce the impact fisheries have on species populations and ocean ecology, while also finding new ways to reduce harm to seabirds and bycatch.

Vietnamese Spring Rolls

Prawns can be fried, boiled, grilled or braaied, but our partner site The Fishwife is here to share a recipe with Asian inspirations. You will need:

• Prawns
• Vermicelli Rice noodles
• Cucumber
• Carrot
• Red Pepper
• Coriander
• Rice Paper Wraps
• Hoisin Sauce
• Peanut Butter

Preparation:

1. Blanch the prawns in a pot of boiling water for approximately 3 minutes. Remove and set aside to cool.
2. In a bowl, cover the rice noodles with boiling water and allow to soften for about 2 minutes before straining and setting aside.
3. Julienne the carrot, cucumber and red pepper and set aside in separate bowls.
4. Remove the coriander leaves from stalks and set aside.
5. Find a dish large enough for the rice paper wraps, add hot water, submerge one wrap, and allow the wrap to soften for about 15-20 seconds. Remove the wrap and set on a clean flat surface.
6. Add small amounts of the prawn, carrot, cucumber, red pepper, rice noodles and coriander, roll the wrap halfway, tuck in the sides and continue rolling to create a sealed spring roll.
7. Repeat the process to make as many as you like.
8. To make the dipping sauce, add 2 Tbsp Hoisin Sauce to 1 Tbsp peanut butter.
9. Enjoy cold.

Notes:

No quantities are given as the recipe is scalable, but you will need about 3 prawns and a tablespoon of each filling per roll.
