Prawn and mango lettuce cups




These make great starters during summer as the flavours are so refreshing and tasty.

Ingredients

1 small red chilli, finely chopped
1 tbs sweet chilli sauce
2 tsp fish sauce
1 tbs canola oil
1 lime, juiced
2 tsp grated palm sugar or brown sugar
1 tbs chopped coriander roots
4 spring onions
1/2 kg cooked, peeled prawns
1 large mango, cut into bite-sized pieces
8 inner leaves of butter lettuce


Method

Place the chilli, sweet chilli sauce, fish sauce, oil, lime juice, sugar and coriander roots in a large bowl and whisk to combine.

Add the prawns, mango and spring onions (leave a few for garnish) and toss to combine. (I usually leave this mixture in the fridge to marinate an hour or so, but you can use straight away.)

Spoon the mixture into a lettuce cup and garnish with the reserved spring onion.
