A DELICIOUS FINISH
What should you serve with it?
Wine or beer
Sauvignon Blanc or wheat beer
The prawns are sweet, the garlic aromatic and the chilli lively. Sauvignon Blanc brings citrus and herbal notes; refreshing wheat beer cools things down when the chilli gets carried away.
ALCOHOL-FREE OPTION
Lime lemonade with mint and soda water.
A delicious alternative that lets the food take centre stage.
