• I’ve added a casual chat room to CookingBites as a place for off-topic banter, light conversation, and short-lived chit-chat that doesn’t belong in forum threads. The chat room is informal and lightly-to-not moderated, with messages being temporary, so it’s ideal for friendly back-and-forth that would otherwise derail discussions. Site rules still apply, but there’s no reporting system or expectation of post-by-post moderation - if something becomes uncomfortable, the right response is to step away. If a topic has substance or lasting value, it still belongs in the forums; everything else can head to chat.

Ingredients:

6 Limes
2 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 glass of water
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
32 prawns
1 glass of white wine

Methods:
Clean the prawns and cut the limes into slices then prepare the skewers alternating a prawn with a slice of lime, starting and finishing with a prawn.
Add the extra virgin olive oil in a pan and when it’s hot put the skewers to stir-fry, add some honey and let it caramelise on both sides. Put the skewers in a baking dish and pour the poppy seeds. Keep the skewers warm (I put them in the oven at 80 degrees).
In the same pan pour the juice of 2 limes, do it reduce a few moments. Dissolve the cornstarch in a glass of water and pour it into the pan with a glass of wine. Mix until it has thickened, add a little honey and if you want even a teaspoon of brown sugar, thicken well and then pour on the skewers.
