This isn't a classic indian dish, it's one that i have brought together in the style of my favourite tandoori and tikka dry-cooking dishes. Serve it with a dollop of raita and a pile of chapatis.
Ingredients:
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon salt
150 g plain yogurt
4 drops red food coloring
20 large raw tiger shrimp, shelled but tail left intact
1 lemon, cut into wedges
Directions:
1. In a large, shallow dish, mix together the garlic, cumin, chilli, tumeric, salt, yogurt and food colouring.
2. Add the prawns and stir well to coat.
3. Preheat a large non stick frying pan.
4. Thread the prawns on to soaked bamboo skewers and cook for 5 minutes, turning until the coating is dark red and prawns cooked through.
5. Serve with lemon wedges, raita and chapatis.
