Old Bay Prawns/Shrimp in Wine With a Spicy Cream Dip

• 1 kg king prawns or 1 kg shrimp, raw and unpeeled
• 2 glasses dry white wine, I used Chardonnay
• 1 small shallots or 1 small onion, peeled and diced finely
• 2 -4 garlic cloves, peeled and diced finely
• 1 tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning
• 1 lemon, cut in half
• water
• 6 tablespoons high quality ready-made mayonnaise or 6 tablespoons home-made mayonnaise
• 3 dashes Tabasco sauce or 3 dashes any other hot chili sauce
• 12 lemon, juice of
• 1 tablespoon tomato sauce
• 1 tablespoon tomato puree
• 1 teaspoon garlic granules or 2 fresh garlic cloves, peeled and minced
• salt and pepper, to taste

1. Put the prawns/shrimp into a large pan and add the wine, lemon halves, onion or shallot and garlic.
2. Add the water to just cover the prawns/shrimp, and then add the Old Bay seasoning.
3. Stir well.
4. Cook over a high heat for about 5 minutes, or until the prawns are pink and cooked.
5. Strain the prawns/shrimp (keeping the cooking liquor for a soup or fish sauce ~ I often freeze it until I need it.)
6. and place them into a large bowl.
7. Allow lots of paper napkins and a spare bowl for the prawn/shrimp peelings and eat immediately with a mixed salad, crusty bread and the spicy dip.
8. To make the dip, just whiz or mix all the ingredients together and taste before adjusting the seasoning ~ we like it very spicy.
9. Serve in a separate bowl or in individual dishes with the prawns/shrimp.
