Proper Posh Prawn Poppadoms
The best canapés are those that look impressive, taste impressive but are easy to prepare and these are just that. This is very much an assembly recipe rather than anything complicated and the majority of the preparation can be done in advance, making them the perfect party food.
In terms of taste, these have it all. Texturally, the crunch of the poppadom paired with crispness of the lettuce along with the softness of the prawn make the perfect mouthful. You can't really go wrong with the combination of prawns and sweet chilli and the addition of spring onions and lime bring great vibrancy. Ideal for any occasion, I implore you to make these at home!
