Extremely refreshing. I make extra salsa to keep in the fridge for a pick-me-up after a long day at uni. You can serve it on a banana leaf with lime wedges.

This dish was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it! I would definitely make this dish again, but I would use less chili peppers.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I would have preferred a more intense flavor profile.

The prawns were a bit overcooked, but the salsa was delicious. I would definitely try this recipe again, but I would cook the prawns for a shorter amount of time.

This dish was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would have preferred a more savory flavor profile.
