Instructions

Kadayif Prawns:

  1. Peel off the skin and head of prawns, leaving the tail on.
  2. Gently open the kadayif pastry, adding liquefied butter and run your fingers through the dough.
  3. Wrap the pastry around the prawns starting from the top to the bottom (make sure there is only one layer to ensure even cooking of the prawns).

Muhammara:

  1. Roast the peppers until charred all over. Place them in a paper bag for 10 minutes. Peel, stem and seed them, then chop coarsely.
  2. Finely chop shallots, parsley and garlic.
  3. Mix walnuts, day old bread, shallots, parsley, bell peppers and garlic with a hand blender.
  4. Add olive oil, tahini, lemon juice and spices. Serve under the prawns.
