I have to say that it’s not very often that I get surprised but this hot prawn salad was a revelation to me. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve made variations of this beauty a number of times but today I added some black olives and avocado which complimented all of the other ingredients so well. Yes, there is some cheese here. Yes, there is some slaw with mayo. But I’m not claiming this is a diet salad. I’m not even claiming it as a healthy salad. It’s just a wonderful salad…

Hot prawn salad

Let me show you how to make it. It’s so easy…



1. Get the ingredients together

As always, I recommend you getting all of the ingredients together before starting. There’s not that many. Raw king prawns, baby gem lettuce, slaw (I cheated and bought mine), avocado, tomato, black olives, brie and some garlic and chilli. Easy.

Get the ingredients together



2. Make the base salad

When I say base salad I mean excluding the hot prawns. These will be cooked at the last moment so that the warm garlic and chilli oil flavours the salad along with the prawns.

For the base salad, first, take the baby gem lettuce and strip away and discard the outer layers. Now break the stalk away and separate the fresh inner layer, wash and lay in the salad bowl. Sprinkle the chopped tomatoes over the lettuce.

Add the tomato to the lettuce

You should now add the avocado and olives. First, de-stone the avocado and break up half of it over the salad. If you are unsure how to de-stone an avocado just click here for my tutorial.

Now, cut the pitted olives in half and also sprinkle over the salad. I used black Greek kalamata olives but use whatever olives you like.

Add the avocado and olives



Now, break up and add the cheese. I actually used a local soft cheese called Rollright simply because I like it. However, I recommend using a soft Brie or Camembert. If you really once a strong cheese try an unpasteurized Epoisse if you can find one. A wonderful strong French soft cheese, if you like that sort of thing.

Finally, add the slaw. This is optional and any slaw will do.

3. Cook the prawns

To cook the prawns simply pan-fry them. Heat the oil over medium heat and then add the fresh or defrosted raw prawns and fry for 2 minutes tossing regularly.

Now just add the crushed garlic and finely chopped chilli and cook for a further 2 minutes. Again, toss regularly.

And that’s about it. Once the prawns are cooked simply spoon them over the salad and enjoy. I like to add a little more of the chilli and garlic oil for flavour but that’s your call. Either way, this is a fantastic and tasty salad! Yum!!
