Indian Memorabletandoori Prawns Recipes

THE BEST TANDOORI PRAWNS

Steps:

• Add all the ingredients listed under marinade to a bowl, and combine.
• Add prawns to the marinade and set aside. I recommend marinating these for at least half an hour and up to two hours for better flavor.
• In the meanwhile, to make the mango chutney, blend mangoes, lemon juice and salt in a blender till pureed. Add the chopped coriander and pulse for 5 seconds till you see bright green specks. Sprinkle with chili flakes if using.
• Oven Method
• Once the prawns have finished marinating, pre-heat oven to 220 degree celcius.
• Skewer the prawns using the equipment provided with your oven, brush them with melted butter and grill for 10-12 minutes. Brush once more at 5 minutes and then right before serving.
• Stovetop Method
• Alternatively, if you don't have an oven, heat a grill pan on the stove. Add some butter to the pan.
• Once hot, arrange prawns on the pan so that they don't overlap and sear on high heat for a minute on either side.
• After one minute, reduce the heat to medium and cook for 5 more minutes. Prawns cook pretty quickly so be careful about the cooking time. Brush once more with butter right before serving.
• To Serve
• Sprinkle with chat masala and chopped coriander and serve with the mango chutney.
