scampi

[English]

These are the shelled tail meats of Dublin Bay prawns or Norway lobsters, small, elongated lobsters with a delicious flavour. In the UK these are commonly dipped in breadcrumbs, deep fried and served with tartar sauce and chips (US: fries). Sometimes they will be made with meat from monkfish (US: angler fish) tails.
