Method
-
Step 1
To make the pickle, peel the cucumber then halve lengthways and scoop out the seeds with a teaspoon and discard. Dice into 1cm chunks.
-
Step 2
Melt the caster sugar in the vinegar with the mustard powder in a small pan to make a pickling liquid.
-
Step 3
Put the diced cucumber and shallot in a bowl, pour over the pickling liquid and stir well. Chill until needed.
-
Step 4
Tip the prawns into a dish and stir in the citrus juices, 2 tbsp oil and salt. Leave for just 10 minutes, stirring halfway through.
-
Step 5
Drain in a sieve set over a bowl, then divide between 8 small plates, drizzling over just a splash of the marinade. Snip some salad cress on top, and add a spoonful of the pickled cucumber and soured cream. Serve with rye toast or flatbreads.
