Can I use frozen prawns?
Yes, but make sure they are fully thawed and patted dry before cooking to prevent excess water from diluting the sauce.

What kind of tomatoes should I use?
Crushed or diced canned tomatoes work best for a consistent sauce. If using fresh, make sure they are very ripe and finely chopped.

Serve it immediately, straight from the pan, with crusty bread to soak up all the delicious sauce. A sprinkle of fresh parsley is also nice.
