This is a delicious dish for summer. The umami paste really brings out the sweetness of the langoustines. Serve this with a simple green salad and some crusty bread for a light summer lunch. Thanks to my great friend Chef Nobu Matshisa for creating this recipe.
You can easily substitute spot prawns, jumbo shrimp or spiny lobster if you can't find fresh langoustines.
