Pan-fried prawns with Asian apple salad

By Abigail Donnelly
4
Easy
10 minutes
8 minutes

Ingredients

  • 16 prawns
  • 2 T olive oil
  • 2 Sundowner® apples
  • spring onion curls, to garnish
  • 1 T grated ginger
  • 1/2 t chopped chilli
  • 3 T rice wine vinegar
  • 2 t brown sugar
  • 8 wonton wrappers

Method

Butterfly and devein the prawns before tossing in olive oil and frying in a hot pan for 2 minutes on each side.

Serve hot, stacked between sliced Sundowner® apples, crispy baked wonton wrapper sheets (available from Chinese shops) and spring onion curls (see below).

Combine grated ginger and chopped chilli with the rice wine vinegar and brown sugar and drizzle over just before serving.

To make spring onion curls, slice the spring onions lengthways and drop them  in a bowl of ice cold water until they curl, between 10 and 15 minutes.

TASTE's take

The definitive on-the-go snack, Woolworths' Sundowner® apples are crisp and juicy, offering a flavour burst of naturally sweet goodness with every bite. These versatile ruby-red apples are not only high in fructose, a slow-releasing sugar, they’re also a rich source of vitamins, minerals and water, making them the perfect in-between treat.

Buy them from Woolworths and pack them into a picnic basket and enjoy their sublime, sun-kissed taste alfresco.
