On weekends I love making rice, because rice is better if you eat at the time. And with the Thermomix, rice is simply delicious. Today I went to the market and saw some delicious king prawns, so the decision was easy: creamy rice with king prawns.
I have used king prawns, but of course you can use prawns, shrimps or whaterver you like. The only thing to bear in mind is that you need to use them raw as we will use the shells to make a fumé (fish stock).
