METHOD
Wasabi butter
- Mix the butter ingredients until smooth and combined.
Nori salt
- Place the nori sheet onto a universal tray. Place the tray on shelf level 2 and bake on Fan Plus at 160°C for 10 minutes, or until toasted.
- Add the toasted nori and salt into a mortar and pestle and grind to a powder.
Prawns
- Remove the heads of the prawns. Lay each prawn flat onto a chopping board. With a sharp knife, make an incision deep enough to butterfly the prawn along the middle of its back, all the way to the end of the tail.
- Remove the intestinal tract.
- Preheat the oven on Full Grill at 250°C.
- Place butterflied prawns on a grilling and roasting insert placed in a universal tray. Brush prawns with a small amount of wasabi butter.
- Place the prawns on shelf level 5 and grill for 2-3 minutes, or until the prawns are cooked through.
- Sprinkle the prawns with the nori salt, chilli and herbs. Serve with lemon wedges.
Hints and tips
- Use the prawn heads to make a delicious stock.
- The wasabi butter is great on many ingredients, try it with asparagus or chicken.
- The nori salt will last for months if stored in an airtight container.
