Cooks Note

This recipe looks like it needs a long list of ingredients but don't be put off, you will already have many of them in your fridge or store cupboard. And it is really easy to make.The paprika I used was a very hot Hungarian one, you may need more of a milder one. I used frozen peeled prawns for convenience but you could, of course, use fresh prawns instead and peel them.
