Gambas Pil Pil.
My Aunt cooked it for Mum when she was in Oz, and sent her the recipe as Mum admired it so much. She just called it Chilli Prawns, but I recognised it as the standard tapas dish. Whatever you call it, it's the same - raw prawns cooked in hot oil with chilli and garlic.

Trouble is, Mum printed the recipe then deleted the email. Then lost the recipe. So I found one (many!) on the internet, all of which required far more prawns than Mum had defrosted. I think Glenys meant it as a starter. Or indeed a tapas dish!

Went well though. Should have had more chilli, but I was mindful of the people I was cooking it for and so followed the recipe exactly.

Mum liked it enough to ask for it again - double the chilli and double the prawns, so I call that a success. We had it with some Tiger bread to soak up the juice. Next time I think some salad as well, even with more prawns.
