If you love prawns, you’ll love these melt-in-your-mouth bites, known as Rissois de Camarao. Filled with a rich, creamy prawn stuffing, these delicate treats are simply irresistible.

These delicious cutlets are made from minced prawns, blended with a medley of spices for a flavourful punch. Traditionally served with rice and curry, they taste delightful on their own, too.
