Tiger Prawns in Garlic Butter

Created by Derf on July 26, 2012

Step 1: Rinse the prawns in a colander, remove their heads and leave them to drain.
Step 2: Heat the butter and oil in a large frying pan, add the garlic and fry over a low heat for 2 to 3 minutes (Cook the prawns in a large frying pan , cast iron, or a flam proof dish that can be taken directly to the table, so that they retain their heat until they are served).
Step 3: Add the lime rind and juice. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute more. Add the prawns and cook them for 2 to 3 minutes, only until they turn pink.
Step 4: Remove them from the heat, sprinkle with coriander and serve with the warm tortillas.
Step 5: Give each guest a finger bowl filled with water and a slice of lemon, for cleaning their fingers after shelling the prawns, and provide lots of paper napkins!
Step 6: Alternately : Peel the prawns before cooking and serve with toothpicks as an appetizer, be sure to serve in a bowl so that the juice is on the prawns. OR Peel before cooking and serve as a main course with side dishes and baguette slices to sop up the juice.
