Serving Size : 10
Preparation Time : 20 minutes

Ingredients
3 pounds large prawns -- boiled and shelled
2 tablespoons minced parsley
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel

Plum Sauce
2 pounds purple plums
1/4 cup lemon juice

Cayenne pepper -- to taste
salt -- to taste

Arrange prawns on a serving platter. Combine parsley and lemon peel and sprinkle over prawns. Serve with Plum Sauce and cocktail picks.

Serves 10.

Plum Sauce: Cut a cross in the bottom of each plum. Plunge into boiling water briefly, then into a bowl of ice water. Peel the plums (skins should peel off easily) and pit them. In a food processor or blender, combine plums and lemon juice and process until smooth. Stir in vinegar, plum wine, and mustard. Season with cayenne and salt.
