Another cracking starter discovered from holidays in Greece. Prawns with cheese sound like a real no-no but in truth the salty Feta goes together wonderfully with the prawns. You can use shrimp large or small as well as prawns for this dish, but if you are using cooked rather than raw reduce the cooking time or the prawns will go tough.
Ingredients:
1 lb shelled prawns (defrosted if frozen)
50 ml olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 teaspoon finely chopped thyme
4 -5 medium plum tomatoes, seeded and finely chopped
200 g feta cheese, crumbled
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Directions:
1. Combine olive oil, garlic, lemon juice and thyme as a marinade and pour over the prawns in a shallow dish.
2. Cover and refrigerate for 1/2 an hour or so.
3. Pre-heat the oven to maximum!
4. Mix the remaining ingredients Divide the prawns and marinade into 4 or 5 individual, shallow, fireproof dishes.
5. Sprinkle over the remaining ingredients Bake in the oven until sizzling.
6. Serve immediately with plenty of crusty French bread to mop up the juices.
