“King prawns and mango are a match made in heaven,” says Perry, who advocates for buying wild-caught Australian prawns. “You will be rewarded with a lot more flavour,” he adds. “Simplicity only works if it’s great seasonal produce. Pick mangoes that are almost ripe. It’s nice if they’re sweet but have a little touch of sour as well. Activated nuts are fantastic as they are not only good for you, but they’re crisp and you don’t need to roast them. If you are using fresh nuts, then it’s best to put them through the oven to freshen them up.”
Ingredients
Method
For hazelnut-lime dressing, combine all ingredients in a screw-top jar, season to taste and shake to combine.
Combine the king prawns, witlof, lettuce, mango and shredded mint in a large bowl. Dress with half the dressing and gently toss to combine. Divide among serving plates, drizzle with remaining dressing. Scatter with hazelnuts and extra mint to serve.
Note
Activated hazelnuts are available from specialty grocers and select delicatessens.
