Method

Grease a soufflé dish and preheat a baking sheet in the oven at 190°C.

Melt butter in a pan, stir in flour to make a roux, and gradually add milk.

Allow the sauce to cool before beating in the egg yolks and grated cheese.

Finely chop 25g of prawns and stir into the sauce with half the brandy and seasonings.

Gently fold the sauce into the stiffly-beaten egg whites.

Sauté the remaining prawns in clarified butter for one minute, add remaining brandy, and ignite.

Layer half the soufflé mixture, the flamed prawns, and the remaining mixture into the dish.

Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.
