Prawn and basil kadaif, tomato and exotic fruit chutney: Method
For the prawns
- Heat the oil to 350°F (180°C).
 - Peel the shrimp, leaving the tail on, then cut into the back and remove vein. Roughly crush the kadaif into 3-4 cm long pieces and separate with your fingers. Chop the basil.
 - Season the shrimp with salt and olive oil, then coat generously with the kadaif. Cook for 1 minute on each side in a hot pan with cooking oil. Once browned, set aside on paper towels and season.
 - For the sauce: Peel the mango and pineapple, then cut into small 1 cm cubes. Peel the red onion and finely chop. Peel and grate the ginger. In a hot pan, caramelize the honey slightly then add the chopped onion with a pinch of salt. Cook, covered, for 5 min in 5 ml of water. Then add the pineapple, mango, Polpa (Finely Chopped Tomatoes) and grated ginger and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. At the end of cooking, add the tomato vinegar. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
 
For Serving
- Prepare the chutney in a small sauce dish and carefully place 3 kadaif shrimp on top.
