Hi hi :)

I bought a box of king prawns... No idea why, it just took my fancy..!

But I have no idea what to do with them - Any wonderful ideas?

haha i have no idea either...what do they taste like does anyone know? Always see them on cooking shows but never eaten or even seen them in person
 
I've become rather nervous about shellfish in recent years, but I used to love the salt & chilli pepper king prawns from the chinese. They do go well with garlic & chilli.

Tesco diets low fat plan (which I am signed up for) excludes shellfish for some reason, I dunno why because as you say they are very low fat & low cal.
 
prawns are one of my favourites, they are perfect in curries, stir fries and risotto - however they are fairly high in cholesterol so if you have problems (I have genetic high cholesterol) you need to limit the amount you eat i.e once a week or so
 
I didnt think about the cholesterol, cheers for that Kimber!
I dont have shellfish much to be honest, just the occassional prawn mayo sandwich! haha.

Thats bizarre about the Tesco Diet Plan excluding it. I wonder why, maybe it is cos of the cholesterol? :)
 
Yeah, I guess it must be the cholesterol content - I never realised it was that high. They must figure people on the low fat plan are trying to lower their cholesterol. I really should get mine tested and see if this WOE makes any difference to it...
