We had a 1970s dinner party and this featured as the starter. Simple and successful.
Ingredients:
500g shelled and deveined prawns, the smaller the better
200g mayonnaise - the best you can buy/make
50g tomato ketchup
1 head iceberg lettuce (or romaine/cos if preferred), shredded finely
salt & pepper (ground white pepper is best)
tabasco sauce to taste (only one drop if you're being authentic!)
Directions:
1. Combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, tabasco, salt and pepper in a bowl
2. To assemble the dish, take 6 martini glasses (for that real 1970s touch!), and in each drop a spoon of sauce at the bottom, then layer some of the lettuce, some of the prawns and finally, a spoon more of the sauce
3. Garnish with a bit of curly parsley!
