The creamy Marie Rose sauce is made from storecupboard ingredients so is perfect for a budget-friendly starter that still feels like a treat. In those days it used to be something simple but really luscious, yet over the years it has suffered from some very poor adaptations, not least watery prawns and inferior sauces. So here, in all its former glory, is a starter quite definitely for the new millennium! The sauce used for prawn cocktail is called marie rose sauce and its made with four key ingredients: mayonnaise, worcestershire sauce, ketchup and either cayenne pepper or tabasco. I like to add a squeeze of lime juice, some others like to add horseradish, and even a splash of brandy.
