Prawns in green tea sauce Type of dish : Starter
To serve : 5
Preparation : 20 min
Cooking : 5 min

Difficulty : Easy
 
Ingredients :
1 tablespoon green tea leaves
225ml boiling water
1.5 tablespoon sesame oil
500g fresh prawns (or prepared if not available)
1 tablespoon sake
1 teaspoon curry powder
 
Recipe :
Put the green tea in a heat-resistant measuring jug and add the boiling water.
Leave to infuse for 15 minutes.
Heat the oil in a frying pan or wok until extremely hot.
Add the prawns, curry and sake and cook for 1 minute over high heat, stirring constantly.
Add the tea and half of the tea leaves and cook for a further minute.
With a skimmer, remove the prawns from the sauce and put on a warm plate.
Let the sauce reduce down until you are left with 150ml.
Pour over prawns and serve immediately with rice or noodles.
