Ingredients

  • 1½ tbsp finely chopped parsley
  • 1½ tbsp finely chopped dill
  • 3 garlic cloves, very finely grated or crushed
  • 10 cooked prawns, peeled, deveined, chopped
  • ¼ cup butter, at room temperature
  • ½ lemon, zested         
  • 6 slices white bread
  • 2 tbsp ghee
  • lemon wedge, to serve

Instructions

  1. Combine herbs, garlic, prawn, butter, lemon zest and a good pinch of salt and pepper in a bowl and mix until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  2. Spread one-third of prawn mixture onto 1 slice of bread, coating evenly and spreading the mixture to the edges. Sandwich with another slice of bread and push down, making sure it doesn’t come apart. Repeat with remaining bread and prawn mixture.
  3. Add one-third of ghee to a hot pan, until melted. Add sandwich and weigh down with a lid. Toast for 2–3 minutes, turn and cook for another 2–3 minutes, or until golden brown. Repeat with remaining ghee and sandwiches.
  4. Use a serrated knife to gently remove crusts. Slice toasties corner to corner, creating four triangular slices for each sandwich. Stack and place a skewer through the middle. Serve with a wedge of lemon.
