For the Prawn Filling
- 3 tbsp mayonnaise

- ¼ tsp mild curry powder
- squeeze of lemon or lime juice
- 150g cooked North Atlantic prawns
To Assemble

- Prepare the dressing: In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, mango chutney, and mild curry powder. Add a generous squeeze of lemon or lime juice and stir well to create a smooth, flavorful sauce.
- Mix the prawns: Gently fold the cooked North Atlantic prawns into the mayonnaise dressing mixture until all prawns are evenly coated. Cover the bowl and chill the mixture until you are ready to assemble the subs.
- Prepare the subs: Just before serving, split each of the six small sub rolls lengthwise across the top to create a pocket.

- Fill and serve: Spoon the chilled spiced prawn mixture into each prepared sub roll evenly. Serve immediately to enjoy the fresh flavors and textures.
Notes
- You can adjust the amount of curry powder based on your preferred spice level.
- For extra zest, add a pinch of black pepper or a dash of hot sauce to the prawn mixture.
- Use freshly cooked or thawed prawns for the best texture and flavor.
- These subs are best eaten fresh to enjoy the crispness of the lettuce and cucumber.
- Substitute Little Gem lettuce with crisp romaine or butter lettuce if unavailable.
