Spicy Louisiana Shrimp

This is a great weeknight meal that can be on the table in 15 minutes! It packs some serious flavour and heat. I recommend to eat this over some rice or to get a nice crusty loaf of bread to soak up the extra sauce. Simple, healthy and delicious!

Wonton Prawns with Spicy Aioli

This is an impressive party appetizer that is a sure fire hit. If you are making these be sure they are the very last thing on your list since they do not keep well after frying. I would suggest to even fry these in front of your guests because that is the most fun part. The wontons expand and contort immediately in the oil and are quite beautiful. The fresher the better!
