The show after this another person cooked prawns in paella and they all commented on how tough the prawns in the paella were compared to these ones cooked for an hour. But I shall try and see how it turns out

You would cook until reduced , then add prawns for a couple of minutes to just cook through other wise they would be as tough as rubber tires

i think you would reduce the sauce(for above mentioned time) and the last couple of minutes add the prawns...

I watched the show and was surprised to hear that he cooked the prawns for 1 1/2 hours, in my experience prawns are cooked for a few minutes - always. Cant imagine anything in that recipe that need 1 1/2 hours of cooking. The recipe as printed here is what I will try.

  Don't know if you saw the show last night Karen but I think he said he simmers them for about an 1hour. If you have Foxtel and watch the show it will be replayed on Saturday or Sunday - all 5 episdodes in fact. I can't wait to cook this recipe myself - YUM!
