"NOTE: It is suggested to serve this on a bed of cooked spaghetti. Prawns are a favourite in Australia, and the addition of fresh chilli gives this prawn dish a wonderful spicy flavour. This recipe comes from a very old Australian cookbook that was given to me many years ago."

This is a real taste treat! I served the prawns over Tofu Spaghetti. I had Argentine Prawns (my favorite). They are so firm & tasty . The tomato sauce/shallot mixture gives just enough pep to the prawns without taking away the flavour of the prawns. I like the way it sticks to the prawns. This will go into my favourites.
