Recipe

Prawn, tofu and miso soup

Just for fun, we used a flower cutter to cut shapes out of the sliced tofu, making this incredibly simple soup very pretty.

Notes

Cleaning prawns can be a hassle but in two easy steps you can speed up the process. Firstly peel the prawns removing the head, legs and shell. (This is the time to squeeze the tails for easy removal but this recipe doesn't require that).Then use a small sharp knife to make a slit along the back to expose the dark vein; pull the vein out and you're done.
