2 shallots, sliced thinly

Wipe the mushrooms clean and cut in half or into bite-sized pieces if they are very large. Blanch the mushrooms for 5 to 10 seconds depending on the size of the pieces. Remove and drain well. Blanch and peel the prawns. Place the cooked prawns and mushrooms in a serving dish.
