A classic Prawn Cocktail recipe! Juicy prawns (shrimp) tossed in a beautiful Prawn Cocktail Sauce (Rose Marie Sauce - a pink mayonnaise). The key to a good Rose Marie Sauce is a good mayonnaise. Use whole-egg if you can find it . (Note 1) A classic Aussie summer festive starter!

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 kg / 2 lb medium fresh cooked or raw prawns with shell and heads on ((yields ~600g once peeled); OR)
600 g / 1.2 lb fresh cooked prawns already peeled
About 3 cup iceberg lettuce, finely sliced
Lemon wedges
Finely chopped parsley ((optional))
2/3 cup / 165 ml mayonnaise (, preferably good quality whole egg mayonnaise (Note 2))
1 tbsp ketchup (or Australian/UK tomato sauce (Note 3))
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp freshly grated horseradish ((or sub 1 1/2 tsp jarred OR 3/4 tsp wasabi))
Dash of tabasco sauce ((to taste))
Pinch of cayenne pepper ((to taste + tiny bit of colour))

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 (SHRIMP) COCKTAIL



Prawn (Shrimp) Cocktail image

A fairly traditional Australian prawn cocktail recipe with the addition of some tomato and corn to garnish. It always tastes best if you use prawns just freshly cooked but then cooled in the fridge a while.

The classic dish, loved the world over. This recipe comes from Nigella Lawson, and really is a lot simpler then you might think to prepare.

Time 10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

450 g small peeled cooked prawns
200 g salad cream
3 tablespoons tomato ketchup
1 tablespoon lemon juice
3 drops Tabasco sauce
3 heads little gem lettuce
1 tablespoon pink peppercorns, crushed

Steps:

  • Make sure the prawns are drained well of their briny liquid.
  • Mix the salad cream, ketchup, lemon juice and Tabasco in a bowl.
  • Tip in the prawns and mix to coat them in the Marie-Rose sauce.
  • Finally shred the lettuce, and arrange as a bed on six small plates or shallow bowls.
  • Divide the prawns in their sauce on the centre of each plate in a kind of pyramid, and then scatter with roughly crushed peppercorns or dust with paprika.
  • As long as the prawns were properly thawed and drained before you started immersing them in their famous coral pink sauce, it does not matter if they sit for a good few hours in the fridge before being dolloped out onto their lettuce-lined dishes.

PRAWN (SHRIMP) COCKTAIL



Prawn (Shrimp) Cocktail image

A simple appetizer that's always a pleaser. I like to use avocado and grape or cherry tomatoes. If these aren't in season use seasonal salad/veggie items or fruits. Rockmelon or mango are good for variety, as is sliced capsicum (peppers), purple onion and cucumber. You can use your choice of mayo or seafood dressing to top of this cocktail if desired. Makes 4 but easily adapted to more or less. You can really use any quantities of ingredients to your preference. If gluten-free check your mayo or topping is also gluten-free. You can use any lettuce of your choice- shred if required

Time 40m

Yield 4 cocktails, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

16 baby lettuce leaves
40 medium sized cooked prawns, prepare and leave tail intact
1 avocado
100 g grape tomatoes or 100 g cherry tomatoes
1/2 lemon, juice of

Steps:

  • To prepare prawns -remove heads and peel. I like to leave the tails intact for presentation (though if serving to children may be better to fully peel their prawns). Set aside.
  • Layer lettuce leaves in the bottom of 4 small bowls. Top with 7 prawns to each bowl. Place them so that they can be seen around the edges of the bowl. Reserve remaining prawns.
  • In a separate bowl combine chopped avocado and halved cherries. Mix and coat thoroughly with the juice of half a lemon. Place on top of the bowls of lettuce and prawns- share out amongst the 4 bowls.
  • Top the cocktails with the remaining prawns (3 each bowl). Sprinkle with some herbs if desired and add some mayo or seafood sauce of your choice.

AUTHENTIC MEXICAN SHRIMP COCKTAIL (COCTEL DE CAMARONES ESTILO MEXICANO)



Authentic Mexican Shrimp Cocktail (Coctel de Camarones estilo Mexicano) image

I prepare this refreshing shrimp cocktail for my family a lot during the hot summer days. Being a Mexican family, we always add Mexican hot sauce (such as Valentina® or Tapatio®) and serve with saltine crackers on the side. The trick is to start with well-chilled shrimp, ketchup, and tomato juice cocktail so it can be ready after only chilling 1 hour in the fridge. Top with additional hot sauce and avocado slices if desired. Enjoy!
