Prawn Saganaki image

No need to visit Greece for your saganaki fix. Make it at home. My prawn saganaki recipe uses fresh prawns, tomatoes and Greek feta. Don't forget the ouzo!

Provided by Peter G

Categories     Appetizer     Main Course

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 11

250 g prawns (fresh, cleaned deveined and tails left intact)
1/4 cup olive oil
1 red onion (finely diced)
2 cloves garlic (finely minced)
1 long red chilli (finely chopped)
1 pepper (bullhorn variety, finely sliced)
3 tbsp ouzo
200 g tomatoes (or 2 large tomatoes pureed in a blender)
1/4 cup flat-leaf parsley (finely chopped)
100 g feta cheese
salt and pepper for seasoning

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil on medium heat in a large deep frying pan. Once heated through add the onion, garlic and chillis. Allow the mixture to soften and become translucent after a few mins.
  • Add the prawns and saute gently for a few mins.
  • Add the ouzo, tomatoes, parsley, salt and pepper and allow the mixture to come to a boil. Once it reaches boiling point, turn the temperature down to a medium-low simmer. Cook for 10 mins.

TOP 10 BEST OUZO COCKTAIL RECIPES - BESPOKE UNIT

From bespokeunit.com
  • Ouzini. Invented by novelist Michael Paraskos, the Ouzini was created for a Cyrpus Tourism Organisation campaign and focuses just on local ingredients.
  • Ouzotini. Throughout this guide, you’ll see a number of refreshing summery cocktails that use fruit juice. Indeed, ouzo tends to contrast nicely against tropic and citrus juice and the Ouzotini is a great example.
  • Greek Coffee. Although it may sound surprising, coffee and anise pair very nicely together. You simply need to look at how sambuca is often served in Italy to understand that.
  • Ouzo Lemonade. A wonderfully refreshing anise cocktail that is somewhat reminiscent of a classic mojito. You’ll need the following ingredients: 60 ml (2 Oz) Ouzo.
  • Ouzo Tonic. Continuing with the wonderful lemon and ouzo pairing, this cocktail uses Italian limoncello to produce a boozier experience: 60 ml (2 Oz) Ouzo.
  • Tropical Dream. What better way to escape a suburban nightmare than with a tropical dream? With its bright blue colour, it looks a bit like a science experiment.
  • Blue Négligée. Another funky-looking cocktail, the combination of herbaceous notes makes it a bracing and refreshing drink. Given the use of Chartreuse, it’s a great choice for an après-ski.
  • Ouzo Massalia. Playing off the Italian origins of ouzo’s name, Ouzo Massalia features two different types of vermouth to produce an excitingly different beverage.
  • Ouzo & Cola. Ouzo and Coca-Cola are a surprisingly pleasant combination. The spirit imparts its herbal complexity, which is offset by the coke’s sweetness.
  • Greek Tiger. A very simple mixture, the Greek Tiger is barely a cocktail. However, as you’ve probably noticed, citrus-based juice goes nicely with ouzo!

OUZO - HOME DISTILLER
2006-09-15 I'm not sure of exact ouzo recipes, but my understanding is that the brands and some of the homemade ouzos you can get in Greece are actually fairly complex, showing a wide range of flavors. Most likely, your base spices are always going to be anise and fennel, though. Sambuca is not a type of ouzo at all, but is, in fact, its own drink entirely. It's an elderberry liqueur that uses anise as a ...
