Sweet Chilli Prawn Patties

Delicious inclusion in a seafood platter, anti pasto or just as an entree/ starter. When I do this at home I use Chilli Wine jelly for the glazing, it comes from the Disaster Bay Chilli company in Eden NSW and is brilliant. If not from Australia substitute sweet chilli sauce for a similar taste
