Wedding recipe ideas: Prawn and Watercress Sandwiches

Prawn and Watercress Sandwiches
Combine prawns, mayonnaise and lime rind in a bowl, season to taste with salt and pepper. Lightly butter bread slices, then, using the cutter, cut circles out of bread, you should be able to get 3 circles out of each slice of bread—you will need 24 white bread circles and 48 rye bread circles. Place the cutter over a rye circle and spoon a teaspoon of prawn mixture over the rye, top with some watercress sprigs then top with a white bread circle. Spoon another teaspoon of prawn mixture over the white bread circle, top with some more watercress sprigs and finally top with a rye bread circle, lightly press stacks down. Remove cutter and secure with a bamboo skewer, repeat with remaining bread circles and prawn mixture.

Makes approximately 24.
