  • Shell the prawns, leaving the last segment of the shell and the tail intact.
  • Rinse, drain, and dry with paper towel.
  • Gently pan-fry the spring onions in olive oil until translucent, then add the garlic and sauté for about 1 minute.
  • Add tomatoes, wine, parsley, oregano, sugar, salt, and pepper, and simmer gently for 20-25 minutes or until it becomes very thick.
