PRAWNS WITH MANGO & CHILLI DIPPING SAUCE

If fresh mangos are out of season, frozen mango cheeks can be used. Prawns can be left whole for guests to peel themselves, which gives an impression of abundance, but can also be messy, so remember to place a bowl on the table for the discarded prawn tails or shells.
