Ingredients:
  • 250g cooked peeled prawns
  • 1 avocado, halved, stone removed, peeled, finely chopped
  • 31.50 gm fresh lime juice
  • 20.00 ml coarsely chopped fresh coriander
  • Salt & freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 x 12cm baguette (French breadstick), diagonally cut into 1.5cm-thick slices, toasted
  • 2 large dried red chillies, deseeded, finely chopped
  • 20.00 gm boiling water
  • 1 slice day-old white bread, crusts removed, torn into small pieces
  • 20.00 ml red wine vinegar
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 250ml (1 cup) extra virgin olive oil
Instructions:
  • For the rouille, soak chili in boiling water in a heatproof bowl for 5 minutes. Stir in bread and vinegar until combined.
  • Pour the chili mixture into a food processor. Add garlic, salt, and egg yolk, then process briefly until well combined. While the processor is running, slowly pour in the oil until the mixture becomes thick and glossy. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer the rouille to a bowl, cover it directly with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until needed.
  • In a spacious bowl, mix together the prawns, avocado, fresh lime juice, and fragrant coriander. Give it a taste and add a sprinkle of salt and pepper for the perfect seasoning.
  • Evenly coat the toasted baguette with flavorful rouille and generously top it with the mouthwatering prawn mixture. Arrange the crostini on serving plates and enjoy immediately.
