Thanks Haldi.Deep frying, that's a new one for prawns going into a curry. May have to try that.What I was really getting at was Tikka prawns. These must be marinated so some extent, no?-- Josh
Hi All,I've been trying for years to recreate the King Prawn Tikka I used to get from my local BIR. They were very large (almost small lobster tail size) and you would get about 4 or 5 in a TA portion. They would literally melt in your mouth they were so tender.Whenever I've made KP TIkka at home, no matter how large the prawns, they have always ended up much tougher than what I remember.I read somewhere that shrimp should not be marinated in acidic ingredients (yoghurt, lemon juice...) for very long, or it goes tough.Just wondering what others do to marinate KP Tikka? I use Blade's tikka recipe on chicken. I'm wondering if I should eliminate the lemon juice (instead a squeeze before serving) and cut down the marination time.Anyone else wrestled with this? And better yet, anyone found a marination technique for Prawns that gets that BIR texture.Thanks,Josh
