White Bean Prawn Saganaki
This dish is from my cookbook Dr Rupy COOKS. The sauce is simple to make, but the flavours are intense, sweet and spicy. The caraway and nigella seeds... lend an undertone of earthy flavours with the hum of garlic and kick of red chilli to counter. The greens and beans pack this with more vegetables, but the sauce is full of the good stuff too. You can easily make this vegetarian by simply substituting the prawns with more beans that have plenty of protein. Read more This dish is from my cookbook Dr Rupy COOKS.

Notes
For a smoother sauce, blend the chilli, garlic and onion in a small processor before cooking.
For even more flavour, toast the caraway and nigella seeds for 1-2 minutes and crush in a pestle and mortar before adding.

This is one of my favourite recipes, the flavours are so rich.
Another great and tasty recipe! As I live alone I am wary of meals that can’t be frozen for later.. but I made it anyway, up to the point where you add the prawns.. I think the sauce will freeze just fine, then I can just defrost and grill with prawns at a later date. Absolutely delicious! Highly recommend!!
One of my favourites and on rotation chez nous!
Very tasty and easy to make. Great flavour with the caraway and nigella seeds.
Really tasty and quite easy. I wish all the ingredients would be listed as is traditional for recipes- the ingredients listed in the order that you use them. I know you're supposed to get them all out in the beginning, but it is very good to list the ingredients in order of use.
Absolutely delicious!! Added a stock cube at seasoning part and served with lentil pasta - our favourite so far!!
I have made this dish several times and it is one my favourites.
Great recipe used tinned tomatoes as didn’t have fresh but worked well, will definitely cook again.
Was a bit hesitant with the seeming random mix of ingredients but it was absolutely delicious. Worked well as a work meal
Lovely flavors and easy to put together. Will become a staple.
I have done this recipe a few times and is one of my favourites. Lovely flavours of Greece.
For 5 people I used 2 tins of chopped tomatoes instead of fresh tomatoes just for speed/ease. It worked fine and was a big hit with my children.
This was a real speedy mid week meal, didn’t have nigella seeds or basil and used spinach but it was really tasty and filling, another hit 😃
