Ingredients for 2 people:

12 prawns (if frozen, to be defrosted)
12 slices of thin lard
pepper as needed
thyme to taste

Preparation:

If you have chosen to use frozen prawns, defrost them and clean them by removing the shell, tail and head .
Also carefully remove the intestines of the prawns, cutting the back and removing the "black thread" inside.
Wrap a thin slice of lard around each prawn , taking care to wrap it completely.
A sprinkling of pepper on the surface and you're ready to bake at 180u00b0 for 9 minutes in a hot convection oven (in a static oven it could take about 10-11 minutes).
Tip: If you also have the grill mode available, don't be afraid to use it for an extra touch of crunch.
