Step 1
Devein the prawns. With a sharp knife, score down the back of the shrimp. Remove the thin, digestive tract with the tip of the knife. Repeat with the rest of the prawns.
Step 2
Rinse the prawns under running water and pat dry with paper towels. Set aside while you prepare the other ingredients which won’t take long.
Step 3
Melt the butter, add the oil and generously grind salt in a large frying pan.
Step 4
Cooking the prawns. When the butter mixture starts bubbling, add the garlic and prawns in a single layer. Fry over a high heat for about 3 minutes, or until the sides of the prawns turn pink.
Step 5
Using tongs, turn the prawns on their other sides and arrange in a single layer again.
Step 6
Sprinkle lemon juice all over the prawns and cook for 1 minute, then remove from the heat. The prawns should be completely pink all over, no gray bits.
Step 7
Serve immediately on a bed of rice, with green salad and a glass of white wine. Enjoy!
