PRAWNS PERI PERI
Steps:
- Marinade: Mix the ingredients in a glass bowl - whisk for 2 minutes. Store, covered in the refrigerator for two days or at least 24 hours to let the flavors release. Once aged, remove ΒΌ of the marinade and set aside to use as a dipping sauce. Cooking: After your marinade has aged and your prawns just thawed, you're ready to get started. Split the prawns open along their backs with a sharp pairing knife. De-vein and clean. Remove legs. Do not remove shell, head or tail. If you just can't deal with the heads - remove them. Place prawns in marinade and place in the fridge. Let sit several hours. Remove the prawns and set aside. Place the used marinade in a sauce pan and bring to a boil - reduce the heat to a brisk simmer and cook for 8 minutes. Remove from heat. Fire up the braai/grille. Place the prawns on skewers - place on a hot grille, baste with plenty of the cooked marinade. Do not overcook! The general rule of thumb is 2 minutes per side for large prawns. The flesh should be firm but not hard. The inside should be opaque and not glassy. Serving Suggestions: Serve right off the grille with the reserved marinade sauce for dipping - have some nice crusty bread to sop up the extra sauce. -or- Serve over yellow or spiced rice - drizzle the reserved marinade sauce over the prawns and rice. Have plenty of napkins on hand and empty bowls for the shells.

[email protected]This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning. I added some extra garlic and chili pepper, and it was much better.

[email protected]This dish was a bit too spicy for me, even though I used less chili pepper than the recipe called for. Next time, I'll use even less chili pepper, or I'll omit it altogether.
