PRAWN COCKTAIL A LA DELIA SMITH
"This recipe is part of my 1960s revival menu", says Delia Smith. "In those days it used to be something simple but really luscious, yet over the years it has suffered from some very poor adaptations, not least watery prawns and inferior sauces." So here it is in all it's glory. This conjures up thoughts of a couple going on the town for the evening and they stop for a bite. *Cooking and chilling times vary*

Steps:
- PRAWNS:.
- The very best version of this is made with prawns (either fresh or frozen in their shells) that you have cooked yourself.
- Failing that, buy the large cooked prawns in their shells, or if you can only get shelled prawns, get those.
- To prepare them: if frozen put them in a colander and allow to defrost thoroughly at room temperature for about 1 hour.
- After that, if using uncooked prawns, heat a large solid frying pan or wok and dry-fry the prawns for 4-5 minutes until the grey turns a vibrant pink.
- As soon as they're cool, reserve 6 in their shells for a garnish and peel the remainder.
- Then take a small sharp knife, make a cut along the back of each peeled prawn and remove any black thread.
- Place them in a bowl, cover with film wrap and keep in the fridge until needed.
- TO MAKE THE SAUCE::.
- Take mayonnaise and add it to the rest of the sauce ingredients.
- Stir and taste to check the seasoning, then keep the sauce covered with film wrap in the refrigerator, until needed.
- ASSEMBLY.
- When you are ready to serve, shred the lettuce and rocket fairly finely and divide them between 6 stemmed glasses, then peel and chop the avocado into small dice and scatter this in each glass amongst the lettuce.
- Top with the prawns and the sauce, sprinkle a dusting of cayenne pepper on top and garnish with 1 section of lime and 1 unpeeled prawn per glass.
- Serve with brown bread and butter.

Steps:
- Check the fish for bones and, if needed, remove with tweezers. To make the cure, put the lemongrass, 125g sugar, the salt, lime juice, zest of 1 lime, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 garlic clove, the coriander and half of the dill, including stems, into a food processor. Blitz until the lemongrass is finely chopped, then stir in a quarter of the sliced chillies.
- Cross two large pieces of cling film in a roasting tin and spoon on a third of the cure, then top with the fish. Cover the fish with the rest of the cure. Wrap tightly and leave for 36-48 hrs, then scrape off the cure, rinse the fish in cold water and pat dry. The fillet will feel firm.
- On the day of serving, start the other elements of the recipe. Shave the turnips into very thin slices using a mandoline, then plunge them into iced water with a dash of the vinegar. Leave for an hour, then drain well. Thinly slice the onion and mix with the turnip slices, 2 tbsp vinegar, 2 tsp sugar and a pinch of salt. Cover and steep for at least 1 hr, or chill for a few hrs.
- Finely chop the remaining dill leaves and stir most of them into the crème fraîche with the remaining lime zest and a little seasoning, then chill.
- For the dressing, stir together the remaining 2 tbsp sugar, 2 tbsp vinegar, another quarter of the sliced chillies and the crushed garlic and leave until the sugar dissolves.
- Slice the fish into approx 20 slices, taking the knife down to the skin, then easing the blade underneath each piece to remove it.
- When ready to serve, spoon and swoosh the dill crème fraîche down the middle of each plate, then top with overlapping salmon slices. Add 3 prawns per serving. Lift the salad from its juices and mound to one side. Scatter with a little extra dill and the remaining sliced chillies, then drizzle the dressing over the fish and prawns (or let your guests do that bit at the table).
