Thoroughly wash the watercress.
Clean the chanterelles and leave them whole.
If using button mushrooms, wash them, slice thinly, and coat with lemon juice to prevent darkening.
Shell the prawns, and if they are large enough, cut them into pieces. If using shrimp, leave them whole.
In a salad bowl, mix the watercress, shrimp, and mushrooms.
Add about ten coriander seeds and season with yogurt, lemon juice, and pepper.
