Method

Jamie Oliver 155x255

  1. In a bowl, mix the yogurt, ketchup, 1 tsp chilli sauce and a good squeeze of lemon juice, then season to perfection. Stir in the prawns until well coated.
  2. Wash, click off any tatty outer leaves and finely shred the lettuce. Halve, destone and peel the avocados, then finely slice. Slice the mango cheeks away from the stone, then score a small criss-cross pattern into the flesh and push outwards so that you can easily slice the chunks off the skin.
  3. Divide the lettuce between 6 small serving bowls or plates, followed by the sweet mango chunks and creamy avo slices. Spoon over the dressed prawns, snip over the cress, if using, and add an extra dash of chilli sauce. Serve with lemon wedges, for squeezing over.
