INGREDIENTS:
Appetizers for 4
INGREDIENTS:
1 lb prawns, peeled and deveined with tails on. (13-15 count/lb)
3 sheets fillo dough
1/2 cube salted butter (2 oz) Can use more butter if desired
7-8 pitted prunes halved lengthwise
1 head garlic, roasted or 2 tlb. roasted processed garlic mixed with 1 tsp olive oil
1 Tbl salt
PREPARATION:
1.] Soak the prawns in water to cover with salt dissolved in water. Soak for 1 hour and pat dry with paper towels
2.] Melt butter, and brush one sheet of fillo dough on one side with butter. Fold sheet in half (not lengthwise). Cut the folded sheet into 4 equal strips.
3.] Butter each strip as you use them, and lay a prawn accross the strip with a half prune and a 1/2 tsp. of roasted garlic. Roll up the fillo stsrip with the prawn, garlic and prune. The prawn tail will be sticking out to serve as a handle. Lay the finished prawn on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Proceed with the next prawn. Do this until you have used up your fillo dough or prawns. This will yield 12 appetizers. You can make more if needed.
4.] Brush the wrapped prawns with butter and bake in a 350 degree oven until fillo dough is golden (about 20-30 minutes).
