Crayfish Cocktail Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a mixing bowl, combine the tomato ketchup, mayonnaise, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and Tabasco sauce. Mix well until smooth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Crayfish

    If using cooked crayfish tails, rinse them under cold water. If raw, cook them in boiling water for about 5-7 minutes until they turn pink, then cool and remove the shells.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Cocktail

    On each lettuce leaf, place a generous amount of the crayfish tails. Drizzle the prepared sauce over the crayfish.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Arrange the lettuce leaves with crayfish on a platter. Serve with soldiers (toast strips) for mopping up the sauce.
