Cooking Steps
To prepare the ingredients, husk the corn. Rinse the prawns and wash the mixed salad leaves. Halve the cherry tomatoes and cut the red capsicum into 2 cm cubes. Lastly, juice the lime.
Bring a kettle full of water to the boil. Place the corn in a shallow dish and cover with boiling water. Set aside for 5 minutes. Drain and cut the kernels from the cob. Place the cornflour and a generous pinch of salt and cracked black pepper in a large bowl. Add the prawns and toss to coat really well.
In a separate bowl toss the mixed salad leaves, cherry tomatoes and red capsicum. Combine the aioli, lime juice and water in a small bowl. Adjust the consistency with a little extra water if needed. Set the salad and dressing aside.
Heat half of the vegetable oil in a medium frying pan over a high heat. Add half of the prawns, cook for 2 minutes, turning once or twice, until golden and cooked through. Remove the prawns and drain on a paper towel lined plate. Repeat with the remaining vegetable oil and prawns.
Toss the prawns through the salad and drizzle with the lime aioli dressing.
