Steamed Carabinero prawn with marine plankton mayonnaise and passion fruit

What is the proper way to enjoy the king of the sea, the carabinero prawn, in an absolutely gourmet guise? Baked shrimp? Grilled shrimp? Absolutely not, this seafood recipe calls for double cooking the red carabinero prawn: first steamed and then using a Japanese technique of pouring boiling oil over the product placed on a rack. Chef Giorgio Guglielmetti interprets this prized recipe by also adding a marine plankton mayonnaise to give it an intense taste of the sea and a distinct note of acidity given by the passion fruit and wasabi sauce.
