Mastering prawns

Chef David Ross will demonstrate how to make a dish he cooked while competing in “MasterChef USA” on PBS. He was runner-up in the show’s second – and final – season in 2001.

At 2 p.m. Sunday, he’ll make Salt and Pepper Prawns with Candied Walnuts and Chinese Cabbage Slaw.

Participants – there’s room for 16 – will learn how to make deep-fried whole prawns, paired with Napa cabbage slaw tossed with a citrus and soy sauce dressing and candied walnuts.

The presentation-style class costs $45 at The Kitchen Engine, 621 W. Mallon Ave., Suite 16, in the Flour Mill.
