Tiger prawns steamed in beer

steamed prawns

Firstly, using a steamer pour the beer into the base pan of the steamer and bring to a simmer.

Season the prawns with their shells still on in a bowl and drizzle with a little olive oil and place in the steamer basket on top of the steamer with a lid on.

Cook for 5-8 minutes until cooked before tipping out onto a serving bowl and serving with wedges of lemon and a bowl of mayonnaise.

Top with a little chopped flat leaf parsley.
