Method

  1. Grate the zest from half the orange into a bowl, then add the prawns and ½ tbsp of the oil. Season and toss to coat. Slice the peel off the orange, cut the flesh into discs, then put in a large bowl, squeezing over any juice from the peel (discard the peel).
  2. Thinly slice the fennel and add to the orange slices along with the remaining oil, the mustard and vinegar. Season, then toss together.
  3. Heat a non–stick frying pan over a medium-high heat, add the prawns
    and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until opaque and cooked through.
