A tequila kissed ceviche, perfect for a light starter . This is a cheat's version of a ceviche using cooked prawns - a quick and easy recipe.
If you prefer to souse green prawns until they turn pink and 'cook' in the marinade, mix all ingredients except the mango and coriander, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. The green uncooked prawns will pickle in the tequila and Davison's plum mix and turn pink. Once they are pink and ready fold through the fresh mango and coriander and leave for a further 30 minutes in the refrigerator before serving.
Serves 6 as entrée
Juice of 1 blood orange ( or Orange juice or Lime juice )
3 tablespoons Davidson’s Plum Superfruit powder ( this equals approx 3 fresh Davidson's Plums)
24 cooked king prawns, peeled and de-veined
2 mango cheeks, diced
1/2 red onion finely diced
1 tablespoon chopped coriander
2 or more tablespoons tequila
Salt and cracked black pepper to taste
In a large glass bowl, combine all ingredients and refrigerate for ½ hour to let all flavours infuse through the prawns and mango.
Serve in a chilled glass
