Spicy Grilled Prawns

Just love prawns, though for me need to be spiced up and yes butter to finish them off.
Here's my spicy grilled prawn recipe, quick, easy and very delicious.


Ingredients

250gms king prawns, shelled & de-veined
½ tsp salt
½ tsp chilli powder
½ tsp turmeric powder
½ tsp ground cumin
1tsp ground coriander
1 tbsp fresh garlic paste
1tsp green chillies chopped
1tbsp fresh lime juice
1tbsp coriander leaves and sprigs, finely chopped
25gms butter to baste
Serves 2-4

 MARINADE

In a medium size bowl, sprinkle in all the spices, add the garlic paste, chillies, lemon juice, fresh coriander and mix in well. Add in the prawns and mix well, use your hands, though wash well after. Marinate for 30 minutes.

Grill

Place the prawns on a lightly oiled tray, skewer if possible,  baste  with butter, put under a medium  pre-heated grill and cook for 12 minutes.

Serve Hot.
