Orange Prawns with Noodles

Categories: Consuming | Passions

Serves: 4 servings

Ingredients:

500 g Large prawns in their shells
750 ml Orange juice
750 ml Stock; (fish or chicken)
2 ts Wine vinegar
2 tb Finely chopped carrot
2 tb Finely chopped celery
2 tb Finely sliced leek
2 tb Finely chopped onion
1 tb Olive oil
1 375 g packet egg noodles;
-boiled but still al
; dente
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:
In a large non-reactive pan put orange juice, stock, wine vinegar and add
one tablespoon of each of the vegetables, the carrot, celery, leek, and
onion, reserving the rest for later use.

Cook vegetables over medium heat for 25 minutes.

Meanwhile, peel prawns putting shells and heads into the pan with the
vegetables so that they contribute their flavours.

Once all have been peeled, cut along the back of the prawn and remove the
dark intestinal tract, rinse and allow to dry on paper towel.

Cook prawns lightly in olive oil for about one minute. They don't need to
cook right through at this stage and it is important the prawns aren't
overcooked. Remove to a warm place.

Strain stock, discarding the prawn shells and heads, and the vegetables.

Into the original pan put strained stock and remaining vegetables and allow
to cook. The sauce will reduce as water is boiled off.

When the stock has acquired a syrupy consistency and the vegetables have
softened, remove from the heat and stir in the prawns and the freshly
cooked but still warm noodles.

Season to taste being careful not to add too much salt.

Leftover potential: May be reheated same day, but wouldn't recommend
keeping it beyond that.
