Notes

You could add some extra flavour by seasoning the prawns before frying them. Cajun seasoning would work well.
Swap the baguette for sourdough or a bagel for something a little different.
You can make the sauce sweeter by adding a pinch or sugar, or add a generous amount of black pepper for something with a bit more spice.
The amount of lime juice used will depend on how juicy your lime is. If it isn't very juicy, then use half a lime instead.
