directions
Mix together the mayonnaise and tomato ketchup and add a few dashes of Worcestershire sauce and a few dashes of Tabasco (Keep tasting the cocktail sauce as you add the Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco. You can always add some more, but you can never "un-add" it!). Squeeze the juice from the ½ lemon and mix it into the sauce.- Finely shred two or three leaves of lettuce and place some in the bottom of each of four large glasses. Peel the prawns and place 5 in each glass. Pour some sauce over the top and sprinkle with a little paprika. "Hang" the remaining prawn on the side of the glass and serve with lemon wedges and slices of whole-wheat bread.
