1. Prepare prawns: Heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil in a sauté pan. Add prawns and sauté on both sides—2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from pan; drizzle with a little lemon juice and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Set aside.
2. Prepare vinaigrette: In a salad bowl, mix together the garlic, vinegar and honey. Whisk in oil; season to taste.
3. Add corn, tomatoes, and green onions to the bowl; stir to combine.
4. Just before serving, fold in cooled prawns (and accumulated juices) and fresh dill. Mix in the choice of greens, or place some greens on a salad plate and put some salad on top of the greens. Garnish with extra dill.
