Ingredients

  • Chermoula
  • (Use store-bought to speed up the cooking process or make your own and store in the fridge.)
  • 1 tsp cumin seeds
  • 1 tsp coriander seeds
  • 1 tsp sweet paprika
  • 2.5cm piece fresh ginger, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
  • 1 small red chilli, deseeded & roughly chopped
  • Handful parsley leaves
  • Handful coriander leaves
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 100mL olive oil
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • Shaved Fennel Salad
  • 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • ¾ tsp sea salt
  • ¼ tsp freshly black ground pepper
    1 zucchini or cucumber, thinly sliced lengthways using a vegetable peeler or knife
  • 1 large fennel bulb, fronds reserved & chopped, bulb shaved using a vegetable peeler or knife
    40g red onion, thinly sliced

Method


  • To make the chermoula, process all the ingredients in a food processor until smooth.
  • Place the prawns in a bowl and add ¾ of the chermoula, setting aside the rest in a jar in the fridge for later use. Mix until the prawns are well coated.
  • Preheat a barbecue grill plate to high or heat a chargrill pan over medium–high heat and cook the prawns for 3–4 mins on each side, until cooked through.
  • To make the salad, whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add the zucchini, shaved fennel, half the fennel fronds and the onion, then stir gently to coat well.
  • Serve the prawns with the salad and garnish with the remaining fennel fronds.
