Ingredients

  • 12 x Large tiger prawns (raw)
  • 4 x Lime leaves

  • 2 x tbsp Ginger
  • 2 x tbsp Chopped lemon grass
  • Juice of 4 limes

  • Directions

  • Prepare the prawns according to how you are going to cook them. If barbecuing you may wish to keep there shells on. Using a small sharp pair of scissors cut a line down the back of the prawn though the shell. Then use a sharp knife to make an incision and remove the dark vein. Otherwise just peel and de-vein.
  • Put 2 tbsp finely grated ginger, 4 finely sliced lime leaves, 2 tbsp finely chopped lemon grass, 1 finely sliced red chili, 1 crushed garlic clove, the juice of 4 limes and tbsp olive oil into a large bowl and combine.
  • Put the prawns into a large container and pour over the marinade, toss ensuring that they are all well cover. Cover and refrigerate for one hour.
  • Cook in a non stick pan on medium to high heat for 3-4 mins.
  • Serve with dipping sauce of your choice
  • Tips: Seafood should only be marinated for no longer that 1 hour because any longer the acidity will start to cook the flesh.
