- 1 handful fresh coriander
- 4 T olive oil For the dressing, combine:
- 4 T ClemenGold juice
- 2 t harissa paste
- 1 t wholegrain mustard
- 2 t white wine vinegar
- 2 T olive oil
Method
IngredientsHeat the olive oil and 3 T harissa paste and sauté the prawns for 3 to 4 minutes until cooked through. Remove from the heat and set aside.
Arrange the watercress and cucumber on a platter. Top with the prawns, feta and lemon zest. Drizzle the dressing over the salad.
To make the harissa paste, place all the ingredients, except the oil, in a food processor and blend, slowly adding the oil in a steady stream until combined. The mixture will become lighter in colour and paste-like.
Siba’s tip: Always allow the seafood to cool slightly before arranging it on the watercress to prevent the leaves from wilting.
