Caribbean King Prawns with Saffron

Camarones Con Salsa de Anis! This amazing traditional Caribbean recipe, with a hint of exotic flavours combined with creamy saffron sauce, simple but impressive for every time I share it with my guests. This dish was one of my most famous recipe for 5 years, as long as I had my restaurant Sugar and Salt in Bodrum Marina, Turkey,


Ingredients
4 tbsp olive oil
50 ml anise liquor (Ouzo or Raki)
1000gr large shrimp skin on, (If you prefer peeled try to keep a couple of the heads in for the texture)

1tsp vegetable stock paste
1/2 tsp corn starch
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp saffron
1/2 tsp cracked black pepper
