1. You can add corn,chorizos ,smoked Russians or you can leave them out but one thing you’ve got to add are the eggs!
   Eggs in a seafood boil seems wrong but the flavours that you get when you eat it ,is something else .

   Tips : 1) Add in seafood and veg that takes the longest to get done first and the items like prawns and mussels should be added last.

   2) Prawns cook very quickly in a seafood boil. Here’s a breakdown:
   • Large prawns (shell-on or peeled): 2-3 minutes
   • Jumbo prawns: 3-4 minutes
   • Smaller prawns: 1-2 minutes
   I used precooked prawns so I only cooked them for under 1 min.

   You’ll know they’re done when they turn pink and curl into a “C” shape.
