Alert! Your PC Maybe Infected With Prawn

Prawn Cocktail, serves four.



1 lettuce, Iceberg or Romaine
300g packet of prawns, thawed and deveined
Fresh celery
Avocado

Sauce
5 tablespoons of mayonaise
1 tablespoon of tomato sauce
1 tablespoon of worcestershire sauce
A few drops of Tobasco or Kataia Fire sauce (careful now)
The juice of a lemon
1 tablespoon of very finely diced onion
1 tablespoon of very finely diced celery
Salt & pepper

Mix the sauce ingredients and set aside after adjusting for heat, sweetness etc to taste. Chill (not you, the sauce, you still have work to do).
When ready to serve mix the sauce with the prawns and spoon into bowls or glasses filled with a couple of large lettuce leaves. Add pieces of avocado and sliced celery if you wish.
You can vary this in many ways, use crab or crayfish, use lime juice instead of lemon, leave out the hot sauce or add more. Play around with it until you have something you like. We used light tomato sauce and Weight Watchers mayonaise just to cut out a little unnecessary fat.
