Method

  1. 1

    Mix the yoghurt, lemon juice, garlic, ginger, spices and salt in a bowl.

  2. 2

    Add the prawns and stir to coat. Marinate for 30 minutes, no longer, or the lemon will start to firm the prawns.

  3. 3

    Heat the grill to its highest setting. Thread the prawns onto skewers and brush with the oil.

  4. 4

    Grill for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until pink, curled and lightly charred.
