Juicy Australian prawns are the ultimate versatile ingredient, perfect for light summer salads as well as more hearty dishes. And not only do they taste great, but they are also packed full of nutrients, making them one of nature’s superfoods.
High in protein but low in calories, prawns also contain “good” fats and cholesterol, helping to lower blood pressure and the risk of heart disease.
Prawns are rich in vitamins too, namely B6, B12, and niacin, as well as the minerals iron, selenium, zinc, phosphorus, copper, and magnesium. Between them, these nutrients help your body produce energy, transport oxygen, keep cells healthy, boost your immune system, and build healthy bones.
Why not sample these benefits for yourself with our Tasty Prawn Pulao recipe? Prawns make a great substitute for meat, adding a freshness to this spicy dish. You can make this recipe extra special by using large prawns, renowned for their satisfying texture and flavour.
