Our lunch for today is prawns

@Alexandoy it's very easy, marinate the prawns in calamansi first. Make the batter, usually its just eggs, flour, corn starch, salt, a little evap milk mixed together, dip the shelled prawn in the batter leaving the tail so you can hold it there then deep fry. That's the basic, all you need to do is search exact measurements on the net since you don't want to open links.

@louievill we don't like fried prawns. We prefer the juicy kind.

We cannot cook camaron rebusado, we do not know how.

Thnk it was January when we had prawns the last time.

@thelme55 the plan was crabs but it became prawns.

@Alexandoy I thought you have them the other day.

I can only eat 1 prawn because it is the giant size. But my wife had 2, waheehee.

@Alexandoy I can eat 3

@averygirl72 those prawns are too big. There are 8 pieces in 1 kilo.

Yes, they are a great find in the market.

@porwest cocktail sauce for the dip? Our dip is lemon with shrimp paste only. But sometimes we have lemon butter.

@Alexandoy I usually like to have mine with cocktail sauce. Very yummy stuff.

They are so big and so delicious especially because I was the one who cooked them in coconut milk.

@Alexandoy they are awesome - i brush a little lime and grill them!

@DocAndersen grilled with lime only? That is like eating in a restaurant.

@HannahKusKus you are right with the rice. We cook 2 cups only but with the prawns we cooked 3 cups of rice, waheehee.

Yes, it is quite spicy because we included jalapeno pepper.

@Alexandoy oo.. so delicious.., it will make us take more and more rice. i must prepare a lot of water when i eat it :)

@Alexandoy Same here. But we first peel and then fry or cook.

We just have to peel it ourselved. There is no peeled prawns here.

@allknowing there is a dish that we peel the shrimp or prawn. But in the picture is the dish that is better if it is not peeled.

@Alexandoy

It was one sumptuous lunch.

So nice to have seafood after a long while.

@Janet357 the baked scallops in one restaurant is expensive but good.

@Alexandoy yes something we can have once inna while. i like scallops more.

Prawns are very expensive here so we seldom have them.

@Alexandoy They are nowhere around where I live.

Whoa, you cannot eat seafood, sorry about that.

@nawala123 so clams and oysters are okay?

@Alexandoy only prawns, shrimp n lobster. Others are edible by me

Yes, I cooked it myself in coconut milk.

@Alexandoy

Yes, very delicious.

@Alexandoy yum !

Thank you. It was so good.

@Alexandoy

The prawns are there so we bought and didn't look for crabs anymore. Maybe next week it would be the crabs.

Same here, it is a long time since we last had seafood.

You are right, we enjoyed the lunch.

Prawns are like big shrimps although they are of a different variety.

You are right, it was one delicious lunch yesterday.

We cooked that in coconut milk.
