The prawn sandwich is a popular dish often associated with British cuisine, commonly enjoyed as a quick and flavorful lunch option. It typically consists of cooked prawns nestled between slices of fresh bread, often wholegrain or white, and dressed with a creamy mayonnaise-based sauce. Some variations include a touch of lemon juice, crisp lettuce, or herbs like dill and parsley to enhance the flavor. Nutritionally, prawns are a lean source of protein, rich in selenium and vitamin B12, which support immunity and energy production. However, the sandwich's healthiness can be influenced by the choice of ingredients; wholegrain bread adds fiber, while a lighter dressing can reduce calories and fats associated with mayonnaise. While delicious, those mindful of sodium intake should note that prawns and sauces may contain added salt. A balanced portion makes it a versatile and satisfying meal.
