Instructions

  1. Melt your 3 tablespoons of butter in a large frying pan over medium heat
  2. Toss in the chopped kataifi and crushed vermicelli
  3. Stir continuously for 4-5 minutes until the pastry completely transforms into a noisy, deep golden brown crunch
  4. Remove from heat immediately
  5. In a small bowl, quickly toss your dry shrimps with the olive oil, garlic powder, chilli flakes, and salt just to coat them

  6. Grab your serving platter
  7. Lay down a generous bed of the hot, buttery pastry crunch.
  8. Nestle your shrimps right into the middle of the crunch with their tails pointing upwards so they look like elegant little birds nests

  9. Drizzle a little sweet chilli sauce or hot honey directly over the prawns right before serving!
