This is such a delicious, different and simple to make recipe...should work with frozen ones but if you can get them, do go with the fresh prawns!!
Ingredients:
50g / 3tbsp butter
500g/1 lb scampi/prawn shelled and cleaned
1 plump, ripe, large papaya, deseeded and peeled, diced into small cubes
1 small onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp full of grated ginger (or powder)
pinch of berbere (or tiny dashes of clove, nutmeg and cinnamon)
salt to taste
Heat the skillet with half of the butter, then sautè the onion, garlic and ginger. When they are well cooked, add the papaya, sprinkle the spices and continue to sautè until the papaya is softened. Remove them from the skillet.
Add the rest of the butter, quickly fry the scampi/prawns over high heat. Just when they are about to be done toss back the papaya mix and blend them well.
Save the papaya seed btw, and try this!!
Buon Appetito!!
