- 3 cloves garlic finely chopped or minced

- ¾ cup heavy whipping cream
- ¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese

- Melt butter in a skillet over high heat.
- When it starts foaming, add prawns. Cook until they start to change from translucent to white. Add garlic, stir for 20 seconds – by now the prawns should be white (but still raw inside).
- Add wine – it will steam and bubble rapidly. Cook for 30 seconds or until you can no longer smell the alcohol and half evaporated.
- Add cream, parmesan, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 1 minutes or until it thickens slightly.
- Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
