As the Whitsundays’ newest resort Elysian Retreat Long Island opens for business this week, we celebrate by sharing one of their in-house specialties: a Plated Prawn Cocktail with roasted tomato Marie Rose sauce and avocado cream.

The key to this plated prawn cocktail is the ultra fresh Whitsundays grilled King prawns combined with chilled, whole half baby cos lettuce sitting atop a roasted tomato Marie Rose sauce, dusted with quality smoked paprika. A side of cherry truss tomatoes are pre-oven roasted and cooled. Thin slices of green apple add a sweeter fragrance.

Serve with piped avocado purée, made simply by blending avocado and lime juice with a touch of salt and pepper.
