Seafood Special

For many years I have been fortunate enough to enjoy the gentle salty air and amazing coast of the Eyre Peninsula holidaying in the beautiful town Coffin Bay. But one of the most amazing things about Coffin Bay is the fishing and the oysters. Coffin Bay is renound for its amazing oysters and are sold Australia wide.

About a month ago I was lucky enough to visit Coffin bay with my parents and with some local contacts were able to source some of the best oysters around, they were in season and they were delicious. Below are some images of Coffin Bay and the amazing oysters we feasted on!






These prawns were not from coffin bay but have become a favourite dish of mine. They are simple and amazing and I got the recipe from Jamie Oliver.
All you need is:
3-4 tbspns of olive oil, heated in a wok
a good handful of green prawns
some chopped red chilli (as much or as little as you want)
grated ginger
a couple of garlic cloves chopped
cook this all together and then turn the heat off and add the juice of a whole lemon
This will make a nice sauce, throw in some roughly chopped flat leaf parsley and eat it with nice crunchy bread.
Delicious and incredibly easy.
