  • 150 g Salicornes (European glasswort)
  • 100 g Lentils (beluga lentils)

Peel the prawns, rinse, season thoroughly, dip in beaten eggs, and coat with panko breadcrumbs. Deep-fry immediately in hot oil. Blanch the salicornia and peas for 3-4 minutes each. Cook the beluga lentils without salt, drain through a sieve, and rinse with cold water. Dissolve the mustard in the cucumber juice, add the balsamic bianco, olive oil, sugar, salt, and pepper, and shake thoroughly in a dressing shaker. Mix with the salicornia, lentils, and peas and let everything cool in the refrigerator. Serve with the lukewarm, very crispy prawns and olive-rosemary ciabatta, perhaps with a squeeze of lemon juice.
