Prawn Cocktail Sauce Recipes

PRAWN COCKTAIL!!!

Steps:

• If you are using whole prawns, remove heads and peel them. Leave a few whole for decorative purposes, if you wish. I find that with medium size already cooked prawns, deveining is usually not necessary (it's hard to do + so small it's barely noticeably especially with sauce).
• Mix together Sauce in a small bowl.
• Toss prawns with Sauce.
• Place a bit of lettuce in serving dishes. I like to use Martini glasses, but you can use any small serving vessel, or even small lettuce cups.
• Top with prawns. Serve, garnished with lemon wedges and a sprinkle of parsley, if using.

PRAWN COCKTAIL

Steps:

• Bring a large pan of water to the boil and add a squeeze of lemon and glug of vinegar. Add the whole prawns and cook until they rise to the surface. Drain and chill in ice-cold water.
• Peel the cooled prawns, leaving one prawn whole per serving (for the garnish).
• Cut the little Little Gem lettuce in half and place in ice-cold water to crisp it up.
• For the sauce, mix all the sauce ingredients together.
• To assemble the cocktails, drain the lettuce and pat dry with kitchen paper. Arrange two-thirds of the leaves in martini glasses or small bowls.
• Shred the remaining leaves and add to a mixing bowl. Add the peeled prawns and spoonful of sauce. Top with the unpeeled prawn and a sprinkling of cayenne pepper.

BEST PRAWN COCKTAIL RECIPE

Steps:

• In a bowl mix together the mayo, ketchup, lemon juice, cayenne, whisky and salt and pepper. Mix well.
• In a separate bowl add the prawns and pat dry with a paper towel to get rid of any excess liquid. Pour over the marie rose sauce and mix together well.
• In small bowls or large glasses add little gem lettuce as the base. Top with the prawn cocktail, this mixture is enough for six people, or four larger portions. Sprinkle a little more cayenne on top if you desire and finish by garnishing with thin slices of avocado. Serve with buttered brown bread and a lemon slice if you want to go old school classic.

CLASSIC PRAWN COCKTAIL

Steps:

• Peel all but four of the prawns (reserve these for the tops). Break the lettuces into individual leaves, then divide the leaves evenly between four small glass bowls. Sprinkle the prawns over the lettuce and season with black pepper.
• Mix the mayonnaise, tomato chutney, Worcestershire sauce, horseradish and Tabasco together. Season to taste with lemon juice and salt and pepper, then spoon sparingly over the prawns. Dust the top with a little paprika and sprinkle with chives. Top with the remaining prawns and serve immediately. Delicious with brown bread.
