Let’s make something delicious

  • Step one

    Start by marinating the prawns. In a shallow dish, mix the vodka and olive oil, then stir in the chilli, garlic, lemon zest and juice. Add the prawns, toss to coat, then chill in the fridge for two hours or overnight.

  • Step Two

    To make the dressing, mix together the mayonnaise, ketchup and lemon juice. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco, celery salt and chives, then drain the prawns from the marinade and gently fold in.

  • Step Three

    To serve, spilt the brioche rolls and spread with a little salted butter. Add the lettuce leaves, then spoon over the prawn cocktail. Dust with smoked paprika, and finish by topping with the lids. Enjoy!
