A great little starter!

  • ¼ cup of olive
  • 2/3 cup of beer – a good hoppy pale ale
  • ¼ cup fresh lime juice
  • 3 shallots finely chopped
  • 2 teaspoons each of coriander and cumin seeds, toasted and then crushed
  • ½ cup of fresh coriander coarsely chopped
  • 1 thinly sliced red chilli
  • Splash of soy to taste

Method

  1. Fresh asparagus spears two per prawn
  2. Rub prawns with garlic and salt mixture and let stand for 1-2 hours.
  3. Combine remaining ingredients and add prawns, coat thoroughly and marinate for several hours.
  4. Spear prawns with knife so as to make a hole through just before the tail and coming out before the head end taking care not to slice open the prawn.
