Perfect for this festive season barbeque parties. The beautifully flavoured giant tiger prawns are sure to be a showstopper. Use a small sharp knife to butterfly the prawns, it is a little bit fiddly, but the result is well worth it.
Serves 4
Prep time 20 minutes

3cm cube sized fresh ginger, grated
Sea salt (we love Chantal Organics)
Finely grated zest and juice of 1/2 lemon, plus extra wedges to serve
A handful of coriander, leaves finely chopped, plus extra leaves to serve(we love Superb Herb)
Method
- Butterfly the prawns along the back through the head, leaving connected at the legs. Remove vein and discard.
