Tandoori prawns

Prawns marinaded in creamy spicy mixture. Tandoori is usually done in the oven at the grill mode, but here I have done using a fring pan. Relish it..

Ingredients:

• Natural yogurt - 4 tbsp
• Green chillies - 3 (deseeded)
• Ginger garlic paste - 1 tbsp
• Cumin powder - 2 tsp
• tomato puree - 1 tsp
• Turmeric powder - 1 tsp
• Chilli - a pinch
• Salt - 2 tsp
• Raw king prawns - 12

method:

• Put all the ingredients except for he prawns in the food processor and grind them well.
• Remove the marinade to a non metallic bowl and mix the prawns in them well. Set them aside to marinate in refrigerator for 2 hrs.
• Heat a frying pan over a high heat until few drops of water dance when they hit the surface. 
• Grease the surface of the pan with oil with te help of kitcen paper
• Lift the prawns from the marinade and fry them on both sides for two minutes or so until the prawns are pink and curled. 
• Serve immedieately with a wedge of lemon.

I found that this marinade has the taste of traditional tandoori. Have to try it with chicken too I guess...
