Buy frozen cooked prawns. Only need to defrost and warm gently, or add to hot food, then they wont go rubbery. Or......
Put 1tbs olive oil in a bowl. Add juice of half a lemon, a pinch of salt and quarter tsp english mustard. Mix well and add the prawns. It sounds strong for prawns, but is delicious! I use it for salads.

Crispy bacon and sauteed leeks
Chilli, olive oil and basil
Pesto
Dijon/wholegrain mustard
Mashed sweet potatoes with a dollop of creme fraiche
Potato rosti

How weird! There was no sign that my answers were going through. Apologies for the repetition. Had to "turn it off and on again".

If i'm boiling a pan of potatoes to mash i often sling a couple of sweet potatoes in (halfway through, they don't take long) x

im a chef and i put boiled carrots or turnip through the potato.the best way to do it is put the mashed potato in a liquidizer add the carrots or turnip add some butter then blitz for a few seconds.
