Fill a medium-sized pot with water and bring it to a boil. Add a pinch of salt.
Place the fresh prawns (shrimp) into the boiling water and cook them for 2-3 minutes, until they turn pink and opaque. Drain and let them cool.
Once cooled, roughly chop the prawns into bite-sized pieces.
In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, fresh lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and ground black pepper. Stir well to make the dressing.
Add the chopped prawns, finely diced celery, and chopped chives to the dressing. Mix thoroughly until everything is evenly coated. Set aside.
Preheat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Butter the sides of the hot dog buns or brioche rolls and toast them for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown and crisp.
Place one lettuce leaf inside each toasted bun or roll.
Spoon the prawn mixture generously into each bun on top of the lettuce.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Classic Fresh Prawn Shrimp Rolls!
