Prawns pil-pil is a ridiculously quick and simple starter.
Try it with your weekday dinner and feel like you’re in a fancy restaurant, or serve it up to friends as a beautiful and uncomplicated starter. Or serve it with some crusty bread for a light lunch.
This serves two as a small starter.

- Fresh black pepper
Instructions
- Heat the oil until sizzling hot

Hi guys,
I’d love to do this as a main course- what would you recommend serving with it?

Hi Aoife. Just a suggestion. If you want to have a Spanish dinner, you should start it with grilled vegetables or a simple salad. Then, for the main, just serve the prawns with good quality rice (preferably Spanish).

In Andalucía they serve this with a crisp white baguette, for mopping the oil up afterwards (yum)
