About the dish

This delicacy features the world-renowned blue prawns that hail from New Caledonia. New Caledonian prawns have a distinctive blue color, a unique sweet and sour flavor, and succulent flesh. The prawns are typically fried in a bit of hot melted butter or olive oil until nicely colored and slightly undercooked, which helps them to retain their delicate flavor. The cooked prawns are then placed on a serving platter and served hot with coarse salt scattered on top.
