I have wanted to try this for some time now, but my family don't really appreciate a sandwich for lunch or dinner, so I needed a picnic or something like it, where I can make these to eat and enjoy on the go.
So when I was going to Coogee Carols recently I thought this would be the perfect thing to take. The carols were great, the fireworks spectacular and my Prawn Rolls just lovely to eat out by the sea.
Now also with Christmas gone and New Year approaching, summer in Sydney at this time of the year, there is always an abundance of prawns, these rolls are great to make with any prawns you have that are leftover. You get to spruce up the prawns where you can enjoy them the next day to.
Now the recipe states to toss the prawns in the mayonnaise, but if you like to see the orange of the prawn as pictured above, just place the prawns on the roll and drizzle over the mayonnaise.
I have mentioned before my favourite mayonnaise is the Thomy brand, it is not sweet like the others and I much prefer the flavour.
