Hi Evelyn, This sounds so yummy. Lobsters are really expensive here in England. I wonder if this recipe could be done with very large prawns instead. What do you think?.I am very new to this website so still feeling my way around. Pauline. (Seafood lover)

05 de Mayo de 2012Hi Pauline, thanx for commenting on the recipe. Yes, you can use prawns in place of lobster or any other seafood that suits your preference. Lobster is also expensive here so save this as a holiday dish.
