Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation of Tomato Confit

  1. 1

    Roast Tomatoes

    Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Cut tomatoes in half and place them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Roast for about 1.5 hours until soft and caramelized.

Preparation of Vanilla Oil

  1. 2

    Infuse Olive Oil

    In a small saucepan, combine olive oil and the seeds from the vanilla bean. Heat over low heat for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Remove from heat and let cool.

Preparation of Watermelon and Strawberry Gazpacho

  1. 3

    Blend Gazpacho

    In a blender, combine watermelon, strawberries, and lime juice. Blend until smooth and adjust seasoning with salt if needed. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Grilling the Prawns

  1. 4

    Grill Prawns

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Season the spot prawns with salt and pepper. Grill for 2-3 minutes each side until they are opaque and cooked through.

Plating

  1. 5

    Serve

    In a bowl, ladle the watermelon and strawberry gazpacho. Top with grilled prawns and spoon over the tomato confit. Drizzle with vanilla oil before serving.
