Directions

Peel the prawns.

Using a small knife, make a deep slit down the back.

Remove and discard the vein and set 6 prawns aside in the
refrigerator.

Heat the olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat, add the
onion and garlic and cook, stirring, 2 minutes.

Remove from heat and scrape into a food processor.

Add the bread crumbs, parsley, smoked salmon, 2 leftover
prawns and egg white to the blender and blend until smooth.

Scrape the mixture into a small bowl.

Remove the prawns from the refrigerator and lay them flat on a
work surface.

Spoon some stuffing into each prawn and lightly press the
sides together around the stuffing.

Preheat a broiler.

Arrange stuffed prawns in a small ovenproof dish, pour in the
wine and place under the broiler for about 4 minutes or until
prawns and stuffing are completely opaque in color.

Remove from the broiler and transfer the prawns to a serving
plate.

Stir the butter into remaining liquid in the broiling pan and pour
over the prawns.

Serve immediately.
