Butter Garlic Prawns
Duration: 30 minutes
Serves: This prep is with pint sized prawns, so this was good enough for only one. Of course you can gobble up a few more depending on the size of prawns and your tummy.
Ingredients
- 6-8 medium sized cleaned and deveined prawns
- 1 tbsp minced garlic cloves
- 100gm butter
- Few sprigs of coriander
- Dash of lime juice
- Salt and pepper to taste

Method
- Heat pan on mild flame.
- Add butter and ensure it melts away slowly, so that you have a nice and runny butter. Once the dish dries up and the prawns soak it in, the runny curry disappears rather quickly. So err on the side of caution and have a good amount of butter in.
- Sprinkle in the garlic and let it sauté gently with the butter for few seconds.
- Then add the prawns, mix well and let it cook on low heat, until they turn a light golden colour.
- Once the prawns are cooked well – they should be nice and and juicy inside and golden outside (eat one or two – no one will get to know), add salt and pepper to taste.
- Garnish with minced garlic, coriander and lime juice. Enjoy!
