The expensive indulgence

Now who does not like Kamba - Prawns? I know I have mentioned this time and time again, but originating from the coast has had many of its advantages. One of them is the love and knowledge for seafood. Prawns are actually quite an expensive treat I must say, and I do say treat because it is most definately an expensive indulgence depending on the size and the weight etc. This recipe is actually an easy one and does not require much effort nor time. It all depends on the level of heat, you are accustomed to. You can switch it up a notch if you are adventurous ;)
