Having inlaws over for a family meal on Sunday and they are either veggie or dont eat meat, so I've decided to do a nut roast and a fish recipe. FIL loves prawns, so I'd like to do some with salmon. Any ideas for recipes, that would go with the usual Christmas trimmings?

how about make a lil foil parcel, put in it salmon, prawns, squeeze of lemon, salt, pepper and a splash of wine, cook for 20 mins, would go with the roasties and veg i reckon

disclaimer, never done this with the prawns...

Storm, I came on here to suggest the same thing. It is very yummy (and I'm not the world's biggest fish fan).

We just used the small pre-cooked prawns from the chiller cabinet, plopped in a handful on top of the salmon Blush. There may have been some dill involved too.

Or if you fancy being really oomphy, instead of foil wrap it in a few layers of filo pastry (each layer brushed with a little melted butter), gathered into a festive parcel (bit like giant dim sum dumpling) before cooking.
