Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

  1. Preheat the oven to 240C/ fan 220C / gas mark 8 / air fryer 200C. Place the whole potatoes (halve any larger ones) on a baking tray and toss with 2 tsp oil, a pinch of sea salt and black pepper. Bake for 30-35 mins / air fryer 25-30 mins, until golden and soft.
  2. Make the prawn cocktail sauce; roughly chop the dill. Zest the lime into a bowl. Add the yoghurt, sundried tomato paste, juice from the lime, half the dill and a pinch of paprika. Season with sea salt and black pepper, mix well, then set aside.
  3. Heat a frying pan with 2 tsp oil on medium-high heat. Add the prawns and cook for 2-3 mins, until the prawns are pink and cooked through. Season with sea salt and black pepper.
  4. Trim the lettuce and carefully separate the leaves. Peel, destone and thinly slice the avocado. Thinly slice the cucumber at an angle. Quarter the tomatoes.
  5. Place the baked potatoes and lettuce leaves on plates, then fill with the avocado, cucumber, tomatoes and prawns. Drizzle with the cocktail sauce. Garnish with the remaining dill and paprika.
