Prawns in chili with asparagus

Ingredients

Serves 2-4

  • 12 asparagus spears, trimmed
  • 1 Tbsp vegetable oil
  • ½ lemon sea salt
  • 10-12 prawns, cleaned tails on
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely diced, or grated on a microplane
  • ½ shallot, finely diced
  • sea salt
  • ½ green chili, deseeded, finely chopped
  • ½ red chili, deseeded, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp chopped chives
  • ½ lemon
  • garnish with red amaranth and chervil (optional)
  • ½ green chili, finely sliced

Method

  1. In a frying pan, drizzle the vegetable oil in and bring up to high heat. Toss in the asparagus spears and cook until blistered and softened, about 3-4 minutes. Finish with sea salt and a squeeze of lemon. Keep warm.
  2. In a non-stick skillet, sauté the garlic and shallots in the olive oil until just softened. Add the prawns and sauté, after about 1 min, add the red and green chilies. Toss in the chopped chives. Cook until just done and tip on to a plate to stop the cooking, finish with sea salt and a squeeze of lemon. Place the asparagus on a plate and top with the prawns.
  3. Garnish with fresh chili slices, red amaranth and chervil.

@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageI have been working with the most incredible Asian pear farm. I have really fallen in love with their produce and the people at this little jewel of a farm in the Lehigh Valley of Pennsylvania.  The farm is called — Subarashi Kudamono @subarashiikudamono and they harvest the most amazing Asian pears, but they also have the most interesting and completely delicious Asian pear products too. My personal fave is their Asian pear spread— totally natural and only made from Asian pears.  I put a dollop in my yogurt, or spread on toast, or simply eat with cheese.  Their dried pears are perfect for snacking or using as a topping for desserts or in baking… and their vinegar is perfect to jazz up salads or marinades. It’s so fruity and fragrant.  I love it! 
This box is the perfect holiday gift for your foodie friend.  Happy holidays and happy cooking!  Order on www.wonderfulfruit.com
