In a bid to encourage more people to eat and enjoy seafood, Ramus Seafoods of Harrogate & Ilkley is partnering with Seafish to celebrate National Seafood Week, with a week of promotions, special offers, celebrity recipes, tastings and demonstrations.
The message this year is “Every Day Eat Fish Your Way” and highlights eight of the most popular fish, offering Cook Me, Buy Me, Dine Me ideas for all of them. And they have teamed up with some celebrity chefs to show just what you ca do at home
Here is Sophie Grigson’s Prawn, mango & avocado salad

If they are damp, pat the prawns dry on kitchen paper. Peel, halve, stone and slice the mango and avocado thinly. Mix the sliced fruit with the salad leaves and divide between four plates. Squeeze over the juice of one of the limes and season with salt. Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Add the prawns and fry for four minutes or so, turning once, until they have turned a good-humoured pink. Scatter over the peppercorns and shake the pan for a few seconds to heat them through. Now take the pan off the heat, squeeze over the juice of the other lime and season with salt. Spoon the prawns, peppercorns and pan juices over the salads. Scatter over the coriander and serve swiftly, with lime wedges.
