So glad I finally tracked down the thief of this clipping. :) Will have to keep a closer eye on you in future. But seriously, this makes a beautiful salad. I made a few small changes out of necessity, but this is a wonderful, wonderful dish. My changes were -- I was out of cornichons, so replaced with a small dill pickle, chopped finely. Also found I was out of cajun seasoning, so used Aussie 'bush seasoning' instead. That worked very well, and I'm sure you could replace the cajun with any strong flavour such as Moroccan, Mexican etc. My prawns/shrimp were not huge so I cut them in half through the middle, rather than lengthwise. I cut a few lengthwise, but that just wasn't working for me. And finally, I didn't need quite so much flour. I think 3/4 of a cup might be more than enough. By the way, I used Recipe #438574 to create the Wondra® flour and would certainly recommend that. Thanks for posting such a great recipe. Hubby and I both loved it and I hope to make it often.
