They were tortured souls for the most part. Who'd be a creative type eh?

Like the presentation of the rice.
Are the the kaffir lime leaves a must for this recipe or can lime juice/zest be added instead.

I thought you were taking the wee wee when I read that...but no, kaffir lime leaves are specified. Total (moderated). Sometimes you just have to say it.  :

Prawns just came from asda, they were the raw variety from the chiller.

Might have overestimated the base in the my recipe, more like 350 ml.

Yeah used the spiral method after seeing the hairy bikers having a go. Mine were a tad doughy in the centre if I'm honest, but not bad for my first attempt. Ill post up the recipe I adapted from a chapatti recipe.

Unclefrank; glad you like the rice presentation, was being lazy and turned it out from the dish I'd just microwaved it in! As for the lime leaves they're not essential, had it in a bir a whlie ago on a pathia and thought I'd give it ago. Its adds a lovely flavour, but could leave it altogether out or grate a little zest over it, or a squeeze of juice.

Thanks Robin will be giving this a go at the weekend hopefully.
