Notes

You can purchase either cooked or uncooked prawns for this recipe - you will just need to cook and peel them before adding to the salad. You can check out the range of prawns available at Woolworths here.
The cocktail sauce can be prepared a day in advance and stored in an airtight container in the fridge until needed.
I like to serve this salad on a large serving platter, however you can also pop it into a salad bowl if you prefer.
It’s best to eat this Prawn Cocktail Salad on the day that you prepare it, however you can also pop any leftovers into the fridge to enjoy the next day.
