Prawns are generally purchased in cooked and frozen form. When defrosted they may be used for hors-d’oeuvre items, e.g. Prawn Cocktail, or they may be served hot in an appropriate sauce — either one which is light and creamy such as Cream Sauce, or in a Curry Sauce accompanied with cooked rice. These usually feature as a first course on a menu.
