These crispy prawn parcels are stuffed with spicy harissa, zingy lemon and eggs.
00:04
Normally you'd make a brick with brick pastry and they call this pastry malsuka.
00:09
It means to stick.
00:10
Now that dough to do at home I think is really tricky.
00:14
But this little pastry I think you're going to love.
00:16
It's a very good little hack.
00:18
So 250 grams of strong flour, a nice pinch of salt and then I've got about 150 millilitres
00:25
of hot water.
00:27
The hot water changes the flour and it allows you to have this incredibly bendy pastry which
00:33
is perfect for going really thin and really crisp.
00:38
So just bring it around the bowl like this and as soon as the fork is finding it a little
00:44
hard then we'll bring in our hands.
00:48
Just do it for a couple of minutes just to kind of get that gluten sort of texture going
00:53
and then have a little look at that.
00:55
That is our dough.
00:56
It is that simple.
00:57
I'm going to just add a little bit of oil to the surface here.
01:03
All over like that and then rub the dough with the oil as well.
01:07
I'll put a little cloth on top.
01:09
We'll let it rest just for 15 minutes.
01:14
Perfect time to crack on with the filling for my mini pastry parcels.
01:18
Two eggs go into a bowl and then I'm going to whisk those up with a little pinch of salt,
01:26
pepper.
01:27
I've got some fresh prawns that are peeled and some with their shell on but you can use
01:33
frozen ones if you prefer.
01:34
I'm going to take the peeled prawns, slice up like this so there's some nice little chunks,
01:39
right about half of it and then this part here I'm just going to keep chopping to make
01:43
almost like a very coarse mousse and that with the eggs is going to be the basis of
01:49
our filling.
01:51
Now the great thing about these bricks is you can look at this recipe and you can make
01:56
it your own.
01:57
You can have leftover roast chicken, you know you can use it to carry any flavours that
02:01
you've got in your fridge.
02:02
A flavour that I love is lemon, right.
02:05
We take a little bit of this zest, the flavour, the freshness is in there and I'm going to
02:11
use the lemon for added flavour later.
02:13
The harissa here, I want to do a little tweak, I'm going to put some oil in and if I just
02:18
mix it up like that you get this incredible ruby red oil.
02:22
Maximum flavour, minimum effort.
02:25
That'll be a super easy drizzly sauce for my crispy parcels.
02:30
Let's get to the dough.
02:32
Push it down like this, try and be even, use the palms of your hands and we're going to
02:36
pick it up and just let gravity do all the hard work, right.
02:41
Can you see how I can almost stick it there and it doesn't move back.
02:47
Joy.
02:48
Cut them roughly into 5 or 6 inch squares.
02:54
We're going to get our harissa here, here and here.
03:02
Put in the lovely prawn and egg.
03:05
Look at that.
03:09
And here's the fun bit.
03:10
So look, just take the pastry and gently pull it over like a little Christmas present.
03:16
Beautiful.
03:18
Let's have some olive oil into a pan, just above medium heat.
03:25
Just place them in the pan like that.
03:29
And for extra flavour, I want to serve mine up with some whole prawns too.
03:33
Just to make it exciting and gorgeous.
03:35
Look at it sizzling away.
03:37
The great thing about this recipe is the pastry cooks quickly, the prawns and eggs cook quickly
03:41
all at the same time.
03:42
So about 2, 2 and a half minutes on each side.
03:45
So in no time at all, these are done.
03:49
Look how sizzling these are.
03:51
Golden and delicious.
03:54
And then last but not least, I want to take some of that harissa oil and just pour that
03:59
over the top.
04:00
Look at the colour.
04:02
We can finish it with a nice little bit of lemon juice and if you've got any herbs, you
04:05
know, just take some basil, some parsley, anything delicate.
04:10
Beautiful.
04:11
It's my little take on a brick.
04:14
All in that lovely little homemade pastry that I know you could do.
04:22
Right.
04:24
Wow.
04:26
Sweet, delicious, elegant.
04:29
Punch of fire.
04:31
Spices.
04:32
Lovely big chunks of prawn in there.
04:34
Look at that.
04:35
Harissa, flecks of lemon.
04:38
The pastry is crispy, really crispy.
04:41
Beautiful little mouthful.
04:43
I love it.
04:44
Guys, what are you waiting for?
04:46
Get a little bit of Tunisian street food into your life.
04:49
You will not regret it.
