The party season is here! Pop the corks and serve up yummy snacks that involve next to no cooking. A little bit of imagination and a lot of our spice is all you need. Here is the first easy-peasy idea to get you started.

- WHAT YOU WILL NEED -

  • store-bought mayonnaise
  • store-bought tomato sauce
  • lemon juice
  • Cape Herb & Spice Tastebud SPICY blend
  • cooked, peeled prawns or shrimps
  • gem lettuce leaves
  • avocado, drizzled with lemon juice to prevent discolouration

- METHOD -

To make the Marie Rose sauce, mix mayo and tomato sauce – the ratio depends on your preference – we like 60% mayo and 40% tomato sauce. Then, add lemon juice and Cape Herb & SpiceTastebud SPICY  to taste – you decide how tart and spicy you like it! Stir to combine.

Spoon the cooked prawns into small glasses, spoon over Marie Rose sauce, add plenty of avo and a baby gem lettuce leaf. Top with micro herbs or edible flowers for a touch of Christmas pretty.
