Parts of the UAE were blanketed in fog early on Monday, as forecasters issued a warning of poor visibility.

In Raknah, in the east, the temperature was just 19.7°C at 6am.
Temperatures were slow to climb in places because of the patches of dense fog, which affected areas of Abu Dhabi and parts of Dubai.

The fog was expected to lift by about 9.30am, leaving a clear and sunny day.

However, temperatures in Abu Dhabi and Dubai are not expected to break the 40°C barrier.

Abu Dhabi is forecast to reach a high of 38°C and low of 26°C, while Dubai temperatures will be between 28°C and 39°C.

Humidity in Abu Dhabi could peak at 85 per cent but Dubai is expected to be less stifling with 75 per cent forecast, but both will experience unbroken sunshine.

Some clouds will appear by the afternoon and into the evening in eastward parts of the UAE, and a humid Tuesday morning lies in wait over some coastal areas.

There is also the likelihood of mist.

Recipe

Garlicky shrimp in olive oil
Gambas Al Ajillo

Preparation time: 5 to 10 minutes

Cooking time: 5 minutes

Serves 4

Ingredients

180ml extra virgin olive oil; 4 to 5 large cloves of garlic, minced or pureed (or 3 to 4 garlic scapes, roughly chopped); 1 or 2 small hot red chillies, dried (or ¼ teaspoon dried red chilli flakes); 400g raw prawns, deveined, heads removed and tails left intact; a generous splash of sweet chilli vinegar; sea salt flakes for seasoning; a small handful of fresh flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped

Method

Heat the oil in a terracotta dish or frying pan. Once the oil is sizzling hot, add the garlic and chilli, stirring continuously for about 10 seconds until golden and aromatic.

Add a splash of sweet chilli vinegar and as it vigorously simmers, releasing perfumed aromas, add the prawns and cook, stirring a few times.

Once the prawns turn pink, after 1 or 2 minutes of cooking,  remove from the heat and season with sea salt flakes.

Once the prawns are cool enough to eat, scatter with parsley and serve with small forks or toothpicks as the perfect sharing starter. Finish off with crusty bread to soak up all that flavour-infused olive oil.
