Now we are going to prepare our prawns. I have with me over here
eight pieces of large prawns, weighing a total of
500 grams with shell and head on. I've deveined it
I've taken out the head, I've taken out the shell and I've made them into a
pretty flower like this and I'm going to show you
how I do this. This is the prawn and I've removed the head and the shell
and what we have to do over here to make it into a beautiful flower
is first we need to devein it. Cut about two-thirds through
in the middle like this, remove the vein here
just pull it out, cut it off, put it aside
approximately one finger away, poke your knife through like this
make a slit, just cut it through a little bit like this
pick up your prawn, turn the tail over holding the sharp point here like this
slide it through the hole, it should be fairly easy to do
put it down, spread out the tail like this and it's pretty
right, this is how we do this. Continue to do the rest and I'll show you the next
step after this
