What you will need

  • 1 kg prawns (thawed if they had been frozen before)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1-2 fresh chili (depending on how spicy you like it)
  • 3-4 cloves of garlic
  • 500 g (cherry) tomatoes (you can also use canned tomatoes if not in season)
  • 100 g greek yoghurt or ricotta
  • a splash of white wine
  • 100 ml tomato sauce
  • salt, pepper, oregano

How to

  1. Finely slice the garlic and mince the chili. Half the cherry tomatoes or cut them into bite sized pieces, if using larger ones.

  2. Pat the thawed prawns dry. To a pan add the olive oil, garlic and chili and heat up all together. Once hot, let them fry for about 1-2 minutes before adding the prawns and tomatoes (in case of using canned tomatoes, let the prawns fry for a 2-4 minutes before adding them in).

  3. Generously salt, pepper and season with dried oregano. After about 4 minutes of frying, add a splash or white wine, turn the heat down to medium heat and let it simmer for about 4-5 minutes. You may need to add a little more wine.
