250 fresh King prawns ( part peeled & unpeeled
400g tinned chopped tomatoes
120 g chopped chorizo sausage
2-4 tbs olive oil
4crushed garlic cloves
1large Spanish onion finely chopped
1tsp Smokey paprika
1/2 tsp chilli flakes ( optional)
2-3 tbs chopped parsley
1tbs red wine vinegar
1/2-1 tsp caster sugar
A little water
Salt & black pepper
Sourdough slices & lemon wedges to serve
Heat some olive oil in a heavy pan and fry the chopped chorizo then add the onions and fry until translucent, add the garlic and paprika the chilli flakes , stir then add the tomatoes the vinegar and a little sugar ( it combats the acidity) . Season well and allow to simmer 15-20 mins until rich and syrupy ( if it gets a little too dry add a few splashes of water. Now add the assorted prawns ( I have 1/2 totally peeled and the rest with heads and tails on ) and simmer until the prawns are pink & cooked through 6-8 mins. Serve scattered with parsley a drizzle of olive oil , lemon wedges and thick slices of sourdough to mop up the juices ..
