Prep Time10 minutes mins
Total Time10 minutes mins
Course: Appetizer, Starter
Cuisine: Family Food
Servings: 6
- 2 Little gem lettuces
- 300 g Prawns (cooked and peeled)
- 100 g Mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp Tomato ketchup
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- Pinch of paprika To sprinkle
- Chives (optional) Snipped
Cut the stalk from the lettuce and carefully separate the leaves. Wash and dry.
In a small bowl mix the prawns with the mayo, ketchup and Worcestershire sauce.
Spoon the filling into the lettuce leaves just before serving and sprinkle with a little paprika and/or chives.
Portion size: This is a small portion size, being suitable for 6 people as 'nibbles' or canapés served with other dishes too. If you're only serving this as a starter I'd suggest double the recipe for 6.
Lettuce: The recipe says 2 lettuces, annoyingly this really depends on the leaves incase they are not the right size. Save any you don't use for salads of course.
Make in advance: Do this by prepping up to the end of point 2. All that’s left is to fill the cups just before serving.
