Cajun Prawns Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Latkes

    In a large bowl, mix grated potatoes, grated onion, beaten egg, flour, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Form the mixture into small patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Latkes

    Heat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Fry the latkes for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

  3. 3

    Marinate the Prawns

    In a bowl, combine prawns, Cajun seasoning, olive oil, and black pepper. Toss to coat and let marinate for 15 minutes.

  4. 4

    Grill the Prawns

    Preheat the grill or grill pan. Grill the marinated prawns for about 2-3 minutes on each side until cooked through and slightly charred.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Broth

    In a saucepan, heat seafood broth and bring to a simmer. Add halved cherry tomatoes and sliced leeks, cooking for about 5 minutes until the leeks are tender.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Dish

    Place a potato latke on each plate, top with grilled prawns, and ladle the seafood broth with tomatoes and leeks around the latke. Garnish with fresh parsley.
