  • 20 large prawns (recipe uses Red Argentinian Prawns)
  • 1/4 pound Langostino Tails (can be thawed or frozen)

  • 1 tablespoon grapeseed oil or olive oil
  • Garlic powder
  • 2-1/4 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1-1/4 cups Sauvignon Blanc wine
  • Sliced sourdough bread

  1. Boil ready-made ravioli squares as instructed on the packaging. Drain and set aside.
  2. Steam English peas 3-4 minutes. Remove peas immediately from steamer. Add a sprinkle of sea salt and ground peppercorns to taste and set aside.
  3. In a large pan heat oil under medium-high heat. Add prawns and cook 3 minutes each side if frozen or 1-2 minutes each side if thawed. Season with garlic powder and set aside.
  4. Cream sauce: In a large pan, preferably wok-shaped, add heavy whipping cream and 1/2 cup Sauvignon Blanc wine and reduce over medium heat 6-7 minutes stirring regularly. Add another 1/2 cup wine and reduce another 6-7 minutes stirring regularly. Add the final 1/4 cup wine and reduce a third time for 6 minutes stirring regularly. During this third reduction add the Langostino Tails.
