  • Hi guys! Let me show you how to de-vein a prawn. It's really simple

  • but you gotta know what you're doing

  • So with the peeled prawn go to the top, the fattest part

  • Then go to the middle like that and just drag your knife down the length of the prawn

  • doing nothing silly with your body weight or putting too much pressure on the knife

  • and as soon as we've exposed that little bit here, right?

  • we can see the vein here

  • we're simply gonna pull it out like that and it will all come out nice and easy

  • then we've got a de-veined prawn

  • Now, this is good, but also you can just take your knife again and do a second pass down the prawn

  • and this will "butterfly" the prawn

  • why would you want that?

  • because then immediately you're able to cook it quicker

  • and you're able to marinate it and impart beautiful flavours from any country around the world

  • and that's a beautiful, beautiful thing

  • really useful in good ways to remove the vein from your prawn and "butterfly" it
