I have a husband with strange tastes who is not keen on prawns but I love the sound of this dish. Do you think chicken or fish would work and when would I add it? thanks
thermofun says
Hi Jo, yes it works beautifully with pork, chicken or fish. Method 8 onwards explains how to do it with chicken and pork. Enjoy! :)

Had this recipe show up in the Mad Monday recipe mail out.
Thought it looked yummy, then ended up getting some fabulous Shark Bay Tiger prawns whilst on holidays.
Had this for tea tonight and it was just fabulous!
Thanks Thermofun!
