- Melt the butter and oil in a large pan over medium high heat until lightly golden. Add the garlic and fry for 1-2 minutes, then stir in the prawns and toss in the pan continuously until lightly golden.
- Pour the white wine into the pan to deglaze it and stir for a few minutes on a medium to high heat.
