1 dozen large raw prawns, peeled

2 tablespoon cooking oil, for brushing

2 garlic cloves, crushed

crusty bread, to serve (optional)

Bloody Mary salad

3 tablespoon olive oil

2 tablespoon sherry vinegar

pinch of salt and cracked black pepper

2 sticks celery, plus celery leaves, chopped

Method

1.Thread the prawns onto wooden skewers that have been soaked to prevent burning (see note). Brush with olive oil and crushed garlic.

2.To make the salad, whisk together the olive oil, sherry vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, horseradish and seasoning in a large bowl. Add the celery sticks, celery leaves, tomatoes and green olives. Toss together, then set aside.

4.To serve, transfer the salad and prawns into bowls. Serve with the crusty bread for a tasty main meal.
