“Not what the name suggests, perhaps! A simple sandwich really, but if you use good quality Australian prawns, loads of herbs, good tomatoes and good bread, you can’t go wrong.”

Serves 4

Cooking Time Prep time 20 mins, cook 5 mins



4   small soft sourdough rolls, halved
3   ripe tomatoes, thinly sliced
16   cooked king prawns (about 700gm), peeled and cleaned
½ cup   (firmly packed) flat-leaf parsley, coarsely chopped
1 cup   (firmly packed) dill, coarsely chopped
1   spring onion, thinly sliced
1   iceberg lettuce heart, coarsely torn
1 tbsp   olive oil
1   lemon, halved
Lemon mayo
1   egg
2 tsp   Dijon mustard
½ tsp   Worcestershire sauce
Splash   of Tabasco, or to taste
1 tbsp   lemon juice
Finely   grated rind of ½ lemon
160 ml   vegetable oil


1 For lemon mayo, process egg, mustard, Worcestershire, Tabasco, lemon juice and lemon rind in a food processor to combine, season to taste, then, with motor running, add oil in a slow and steady stream until thick and combined. Makes about 200ml. Mayo will keep refrigerated in an airtight container for 4 days.
2 Preheat a grill over high heat, then lightly toast cut sides of sourdough rolls (1-2 minutes). Spread with lashings of lemon mayo, top with tomato, season to taste. Arrange prawns on top, season to taste, then combine herbs and spring onion in a bowl and scatter over. Finish with iceberg heart, drizzle with a little olive oil and a squeeze of lemon. Spread more mayo on the lid of each roll, place on top and serve.
