Peel the prawns and devein.

Cut them into small pieces and place in a bowl; add the juice of the second lemon.

Leave to marinade for 20 minutes, then add a little extra virgin olive oil, a pinch of salt and pepper and mix gently.

Put the prawns inside two cake ring moulds and leave in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes.

Remove from the refrigerator and add the prickly pear juice before removing the mould, decorate with fresh mint leaves and remove the mould before serving.
