Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.
Step 1
If you’re using frozen prawns remember to defrost them before starting!
Step 2
In a medium bowl, toss together the prawns, Marie Rose sauce, lemon juice, a pinch of salt and some black pepper. Taste to check seasoning and adjust as needed. (To make homemade Marie Rose sauce, combine 2 tbsp ketchup, 5 tbsp mayonnaise, 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce, 5 shakes of Tabasco and 1 tbsp lemon juice).
Step 3
For the salad, add the diced avocado, cucumber, sliced lettuce and chopped chives to a large bowl. Whisk together the olive oil, cider vinegar, a pinch of salt and pinch of sugar and toss through the salad.
Step 4
Divide the salad between the plates, followed by the prawns and a wedge of lemon. Enjoy on its own or with a slice of buttered brown bread.
