Chef's Tip

Prawns work beautifully in fresh tropical salads because their natural sweetness pairs perfectly with charred pineapple, creamy avocado, and bright lime dressing. Grilling the pineapple adds smoky caramelised flavour that balances the freshness of the seafood, while coriander, chilli, and cumin bring warmth and vibrancy to the dish. Keeping the salad light and fresh allows the prawns to remain the hero while delivering a perfect balance of sweet, savoury, and citrus flavours.
