Cooking method

Cooking time: 2 h 30 min

First of all, the shrimps need to be defrosted, for this we transfer them from the freezer to the refrigerator and leave for 2 hours. I do not advise defrosting in the microwave, let the process take longer, but the product will not lose its appearance.

Pour water into a saucepan in a ratio of 1: 3, that is, 3 liters, send it to the fire. Add salt to boiling water and spread the king prawns, cook for about 7 minutes from the moment the water boils. If the shrimp are larger, then cook a little longer, but no more than 10 minutes, since the meat can be overcooked and become tough.

We throw the finished shrimp into a colander, let the water drain, clean the shells and heads - everything, you can try!

You can serve it on the table with your favorite sauce.

I wish you delicious shrimp and a great mood!
