Preparation
- For the dressing, gently sweat the garlic in the olive oil over a low heat without letting it colour, and let the oil cool completely. Then whisk with the lime and orange juice and season with salt and pepper.
- Peel the mango and avocado, dice the flesh very finely and mix immediately with the dressing so the avocado does not turn brown.
- Peel and deseed the cucumber and dice finely. Dice the tomatoes and chilli finely as well and slice the spring onions into thin rings. Fold everything gently into the salsa with the coriander and season with salt and pepper.
- Wash the rocket and spin it thoroughly dry.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan and brush it with a little oil. Fry the prawns for about 2 minutes on each side and season with salt and pepper at the end.
- Spread the rocket on plates, put the salsa next to it or on top and place the warm prawns on top.
Drink with it

Sauvignon Blanc, young and cool
Green, herbaceous freshness meets the coriander and the bitter note of the rocket, and the acidity keeps the mango and dressing lively.

Blanco tequila as a highball with soda, plenty of ice and lime
Mango, lime and coriander form an aroma bridge to the green, peppery blanco; soda and ice keep the mild chilli in check rather than fanning it.
