Step 1
Make your Bloody Mariner cocktail first to enjoy whilst cooking. For this, mix the vodka, tomato juice and spices together over ice and serve with a cooked prawn on the rim, slice of lemon and stick of fennel.
Step 2
For the prawns in the sandwich, fry them off the raw tail prawns in a pan with paprika, oil, sea salt and cracked pepper. Cook for 3-4 mins adding hot sauce depending on how spicy you like your food.
Step 3
Combine the remaining ingredients together to make a classic Marie rose sauce. Toss the prawns into the spiced Marie rose sauce to coat evenly.
Step 4
Serve in a warm baguette with a layer of kimchi and topped with sliced spring onions. Season to taste and fill with wild rocket leaves.
