timbo2 8 Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 I always thought they tasted like mud! We put lemon juice on them but they just tasted like mud with lemon juice on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PINNACLE 2,297 Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 If you keep them in a bucket for 6-7 hours they don't seem to taste of mud. You do need loads as there is not much meat on them and the big ones seem to have as much as the little ones. Last time I had some I boiled them in salt water until pink, let them cool to peel and then fried the meat up with chili, ginger, corriander and garlic then rolled some of this with lettuce and mayo in a tortilla. Great lunch. I have done curries before with them, put them in fish pies, in salads and on the BBQ they are good fun if you have loads and people round to eat them and I wouldn't fancy buying 100+ big prawns. They are also very plentifull I have borrowed two pots/nets before and can get over 100 in a night just using a mackrel for bait. I have a mate who has property on a local river which is very clean which helps but I know a guy who gets them out of the Wey in Guildford town centre where his office is.
