HOW TO
-
Thaw 1 lb Mitch’s Catch spot prawns by taking them out of the container and placing in a bowl of cool water (~ 45 minutes).
-
Once thawed, chop into large chunks and set aside.
-
In a large bowl, mix the celery, mayonnaise, chives, lemon juice, lemon zest, kosher salt and ground black pepper. Taste for seasoning.
-
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter and add the chopped spot prawns. Cook, stirring for 2 minutes until warmed through and buttery all over. Use a slotted spoon to remove from heat and let the prawns cool down in a separate dish before next step.
-
Add the spot prawn meat into the mayonnaise mixture and toss to coat. Discard butter and juice released from the spot prawn and wipe out the skillet.
-
Melt the remaining butter in the skillet over medium heat; toast the buns on the cut sides about 2 minutes each side until golden and toasty.
-
Load each bun equally with spot prawns and garnish with more chives if desired. Serve with potato chips.
