Instructions

  1. Cut the garlic into small slices / cubes or put it through the garlic press. Marinate the prawns in the olive oil, garlic, salt and dried spices for at least two hours.
  2. Then fry the marinated prawns briefly and sharply in a pan on each side and flambé with the cognac. Now add the butter and parsley directly, take the prawns off the heat quickly and pour the juice of half a lemon over them.
  3. Now serve the prawns directly in the pan and season again with plenty of salt from the salt mill. Top up the delicious brew with the prawns and the baguette.
