How To Make Creamy Baked Prawn Dip

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease a small baking dish or oven-safe skillet. In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, Clover cream, mayonnaise, parmesan cheese, garlic, smoked paprika, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth. Add the prawns and spring onions to the creamy mixture. Stir to combine. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese generously over the top. Place the dish in the oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly. Remove from the oven, and garnish with parsley, spring onions, and a sprinkle of chili flakes if desired. Serve warm with crusty bread.
