Recipe detials: Prawn and Cucumber Salad

Text Only This salad is particularly pretty as well as good to cat and, being Thai in origin, is completely oil free and low kilojoules. Drop 600 g raw prawns into boiling water for about 3 minutes or just until they turn pink. Set the saucepan aside and keep the prawns cool in the liquid. Peel a cucumber about 350 g in weight and slice it thinly. Shell the prawns and halve them lengthwise. Arrange, prawns and cucumber decoratively in a serving dish. Make a dressing by combining 3 finely chopped shallots, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon fish sauce and one small chilli, chopped finely. Spoon the dressing over the salad and scatter over the top 2 tablespoons chopped parsley. Leave flavours to combine for half an hour before serving. Makes 4 servings.
