1

Combine the ketchup, mayo, Worcestershire sauce, 2 tsp lemon juice and the Tabasco. Season to taste with a pinch of celery salt, if using, and black pepper, adding a splash more lemon juice, if needed.

2

Mix the shallots with the remaining lemon juice and a pinch of salt in a non-metallic bowl and set aside to pickle lightly for 10 mins.

3

Heat the butter and nduja in a saucepan over a medium heat, swirling the pan until the butter melts.

4

Once foaming, stir in the prawns and cook, basting them in the butter, until the prawns turn pink and are cooked through, about 3-4 mins.

5

Remove from the heat and leave to cool slightly.

6

Spoon 1 tsp of the cocktail sauce into each lettuce leaf cup, then top with the prawns, some of the leftover nduja butter, the pickled shallots and parsley.
