Buttermilk Prawns
My teenage daughter vowed that after her exams were over, she'll be baking everyday.
My teenage daughter vowed that after her exams were over, she'll be baking everyday. Because she always preferred baking over cooking dishes, her declaration did not surprise us. We were very surprised though, to be greeted by a really really delicious Buttermilk Prawns for dinner which Izarra made. I am so grateful my daughter likes cooking :-)
