Most people like prawn cocktail. These canapes look elegant, pretty, colourful and are incredibly easy to make. You only need two prawns per person so it won’t break the bank either.
TIP Use the small North Atlantic prawns which are plump and sweet. Resist using frozen prawns. Like most first dates, they usually disappoint.

20 North Atlantic prawns
4 tbs mayonnaise
1 tsp tomato ketchup
juice of half a lemon
a few drops of tobasco
