Chipotle Prawns

Mexico is surrounded by 6,300 miles of coastline so, unsurprisingly, fish and seafood are used in abundance. This creamy, lightly spiced dish is simplicity itself to make served with rice and a crisp green salad.

Ingredients

• 400g raw peeled king prawns
• 2 tbsp Discovery Chipotle Paste, or to taste
• 1 tbsp oil
• Splash of brandy (optional)
• 284ml double cream
• To serve: rice and a green salad

Method

1. Coat prawns in chipotle paste and oil.
2. Heat a large frying pan until very hot, add prawns and fry over high heat until well browned and nearly cooked.
3. Add a splash of brandy, if using, flame the pan, then pour in the cream.
4. Bring to the boil and simmer until lightly thickened.
5. Serve over rice with a crisp green salad
