- ¼ cup (75g) tandoori curry paste
- 1 cup (280g) natural Greek-style (thick) yoghurt
- ½ cup (125ml) lime juice
- sea salt and cracked black pepper
- 16 large green (uncooked) tiger prawns (shrimp) (about 1kg)
- 1 teaspoon finely grated ginger
- 4 store-bought roti

- 1 cup coriander (cilantro) leaves
- 1 long green chilli, deseeded and finely chopped

- Place the curry paste, half the yoghurt, half the lime juice, salt and pepper in a large bowl and mix to combine. Add the prawns, toss to coat and set aside to marinate for 10 minutes. Place the ginger, remaining yoghurt and remaining lime juice in a small bowl and mix to combine. Heat a char-grill pan over high heat. Cook the roti for 1–2 minutes each side. Set aside and keep warm.
