I saw this recipe & it reminded me of a Greek Restaurant I used to go to years ago. The prawns were not exactly the same but nonetheless, delicious. Husband was not so keen as he does not like olives, does not like fetta cheese but really enjoyed the prawns. He used to eat olives & fetta, not sure why his tastes has changed I had the remainder of the sauce on toast for breakfast & it was delicious.

I'm not giving this any stars because of all the changes I made, but wanted to review it. I put this over pasta and didn't make a salad. Since I was doing this, I bulked it up a bit and added chopped onions, mushrooms and red pepper. I was also out of fresh tomatoes so I used a small can of plum tomatoes. Left out the green onions as I didn't have any and only had green olives. It was thoroughly enjoyed by all and there were no leftovers! Definitely a keeper....Thanks! :D
