The Best Tandoori Prawns Recipes

TANDOORI PRAWN RECIPE

Steps:

• First defrost prawns by either keeping them in water at room temperature water for 30 minutes or transfer the frozen prawns in the fridge compartment from the freezer. This will also thaw the prawns for using them the next day.
• Next, add and mix all ingredients listed above in a big bowl and add thawed prawns in that bowl. Keep them in the marinade for 10 minutes if you are in hurry. However If you have time, keeping these marinated prawns for longer than hour would make tandoori prawns even tastier.
• After that skew these prawns on to skewers and cook them using any of the above mentioned methods. You can use an oven or grill on a stove top as per your choice. Both processes are explained below:
• Preheat the oven at 200C.
• Brush marinated prawns with oil and grill for 10 Minutes. Actual time may vary from 9-12 minutes depending on the size of prawns you are using.
• Brush them with melted butter after cooking for that extra flavor if you like that, or serve them hot as it is.
• If you do not want to use an oven, simply make them over stove top.
• Heat a grill pan brush it with oil. When it is hot, place marinated prawn skewers and grill on medium heat for 2-3 minutes.
• Then increase the heat and allow them to cook till they are slightly charred for that smoky flavour.
• Once done, sprinkle some chaat masala and serve them with sauce/chutney of your choice.

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.
