Ingredients:

120ml (1/2 cup) sour cream
120ml (1/2 cup) mayonnaise
4 tbsp milk
120g (4 oz) blue cheese, crumbled
1 tbs fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp sea salt
4 tbsp plain flour
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (or to taste)
675g (1 1/2 lbs) king prawns, peeled and de-veined (but leave the tails attached)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tsp hot pepper sauce
1 tbsp flat-leaf parsley, chopped

Method:

In a bowl, mix together the sour cream, mayonnaise, milk, blue cheese, lemon juice and 1/2 tsp sea salt. Cover and refrigerate until needed.

In another bowl, mix together the flour, 1/4 tsp salt and cayenne pepper. Add the prawns and toss to coat in the spicy flour mix.

Combine the oil, butter and hot sauce in a frying pan. Add the prawns and cook, stirring constantly, for about 4 minutes, or until just cooked through and lightly browned.

Arrange teaspoons of the blue cheese mixture on a serving tray. Scatter over the parsley then sit a prawn on top.
