Two days after Christmas in our house we still have quiet a bit left over Christmas food so I decided to simply put everything together in a way that it looks appetizing and new. Otherwise no one would really touch, the family had been forgiving eating left over Christmas food on boxing day but the third is tricky so I had to stretch my imaginations a bit. The only thing to make with cooked potatoes, tiger prawns, bacon and salad is really potatoes salad which is very nutritious with all the trimmings.
When you make this recipe, you can of course use fresh ingredients, I’m only using already cooked ingredients based on what I have left over from Christmas. The aim is certainly make your food look completely different from so you can entice everyone with it.
- 8 tiger prawns
- 8 large potatoes
- lettuce
- 2 tomatoes
- 1 carrot
- half large red onion
- marula oil (or any vegetable oil of choice)
- 3 tablespoon of salad cream
- 1 tablespoon of humus
- slices of bacon(turkey, chicken and any other left over meats)
- [b]PREPARING THE SALAD[/b]
- rehash the potatoes by boiling water in a kettle and pour it over your potatoes before bringing it to the boil till the water boils in big bubbles over the potatoes
- scoop the potatoes out of the water into a clean bowl and crush them with a fork into a mash
- add your lettuce, tomatoes, onion and carrot all chopped to the mashed potatoes
- add a scoop of humus and some salad cream and mix together
- [b]PREPARING THE TIGER PRAWNS[/b][br]
- wash your tiger prawns if you are using fresh and parboil for 4 minutes
- if your tiger prawns have been precooked then simply rinse thoroughly (I eat every part of prawns so I leave the head, tail and shell in tact)
- heat your oil in a frying pan and lightly fry the prawns in the oil when it is very hot for 4 minutes
- turn the tiger prawn on both sides allowing it cook on either side
- take prawns out of the oil and wipe with tissue paper or drain excess oil in a colander
- you now serve your delicious rehash Christmas left over
