Chef's tip
For festive meals: - The cocktail sauce can be flavoured with saffron. - A sauce can be made to replace the cocktail sauce by combining reduced lobster jus with cream cheese.

Chef's tip
To control cost per portion, you can replace prawns with: - seafood sticks: low cost per portion - a mixture of frozen shellfish: low cost per portion - diced smoked salmon: medium cost per portion - crab, lobster or crayfish meat: high cost per portion
