POST-WAR FRIESIAN PRAWNS (and more)

For once, I'll post a recipe for a change. This is a typical post-war North German dish with few calories:

-Schwarzbrot (special black bread, darker than brown, can be purchased at Lidl or Aldi)
- 100 g prawns per person
- 1 egg per person
- butter for the bread
- more butter to fry the eggs
- spices (usually salt and black pepper) after your own wish

Butter the bread without toasting it. Add the prawns on top, and then crown it all with a sunny-side-up (fried English style) egg. Add spices if you wish.

These prawns are traditionally served with hot tea, prepared Friesian style:
- tea leaves
- water
- cream
- sugar

Put the leaves into the teapot. Then, heat the water up to 100ºC and fill half the teapot. Wait for three or four minutes. Then, heat the rest of the water up to 100ºC and fill the teapot up. Put sugar at the bottom of the cups. Then, pour the tea into the cups through a strainer (an infusive basket may also be used for the same purpose). Finally, pour the cream slowly into the cups using a teaspoon and watch the cream flowers grow in the cups.


As a bonus and for the Spanish summer, I offer you the recipe for Coke and Ice:
- Coca-Cola
- Ice cream (of the kind that can be portioned in balls)

Simply put a ball of ice in a drink of Coke (Now don't fill the glass to the brim!).
