Warm Pumpkin Spinach Prawn Salad With Chilli Lime Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• Peel the prawns, leaving the tails intact, then rinse and pat dry. Put all the dressing ingredients into a small bowl and whisk to mix.
• Up to 1 hr before serving, peel and stone the avocados, then cut into thick slices and put in a large bowl with half the dressing. Mix lightly to coat all the slices (this prevents them turning brown). Chop the basil and add to the bowl along with the prawns. Toss everything together lightly. Scatter the leaves over a platter, then spoon the prawns, avocado and basil mix over. Drizzle with the remaining dressing and serve with lime wedges for squeezing over.

Steps:

• Finely chop the chilli, removing the seeds if you don't like too much heat. Mix in a large bowl with the garlic, lime zest and juice, soy sauce and sesame oil, then tip in the prawns and toss to coat. You can leave the prawns to marinate in the fridge for an hour or so.
• Lift the prawns out of the marinade. Toss the spinach in the marinade until coated, then tip into a serving dish. Slice the acovados and tuck pieces in amongst the spinach with the prawns.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F Place the pumpkin in a roasting tin, drizzle over 2 tbs of the oil, then season generously. Toss until evenly coated and roast for 35-40 minutes until tender and lightly caramelized.

• Place the remaining 4 tbs of oil in a large bowl with the vinegar, syrup, mustard, sugar and seasoning. Whisk until well combined and thickened.
