Method

step 1

Mix the mayonnaise and ketchup together. Add the Tabasco and some seasoning, and stir through the prawns. Slice the rolls as you would for a hot dog, and spoon in the prawns.
step 2

Mix the avocado with a little lemon juice (to stop it browning), then mix with the lettuce, cucumber, cress and a little more lemon juice. Serve with the subs, some prawn cocktail crisps and extra Tabasco (for those who want it).
