Shrimp:

Shrimp Size # Used per serving
U5  2 per serving
8-10  3-4 per serving
16-20  5-6 per serving
21-25  6-8 per serving

We used U5s for this menu. The number on the left signifies how many shrimp you get to the pound, i.e., 16-20 indicates you would get 16-20 shrimp in a pound before cleaning. You can buy the shrimp already cleaned and de-veined.

Instructions: 

Toss your Shrimp in the Olive Oil, Lemon, Fresh Thyme and Salt & Pepper before Grilling. Larger size (eg. U5) take about 10-15 min to cook. After Grilling, keep Shrimp Warm under tin foil until ready to use.

Place about 1/4 Cup of Miso/Mustard Sauce in Centre of Plate.

Put 2 Warm Risotto Cakes on Top of Sauce - 1 in centre and other leaning against the other. Now Place your Prawns on top of Cakes. Sprinkle with Chopped Chives or Parsley and Serve.
