Ingredients:

• 12 raw large shrimp
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 2 garlic cloves, crushed
• ½ teaspoon paprika
• ½ teaspoon ground turmeric
• 2 green chilies, seeded, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon chopped cilantro (fresh coriander)
• Lime slices, to garnish

Peel shrimp, leaving tail shells on. Make a small incision along the spines and remove black vein. Thread on to skewers and set aside.

Whisk together vegetable oil, lime juice, garlic, paprika and turmeric. Stir in chilies. Put skewered shrimp in a non- metal dish; add marinade. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes, basting occasionally.

Preheat broiler. Drain skewered shrimp and place on a broiler rack. Cook 3 to 5 minutes, turning and basting occasionally with the marinade, until shrimp are pink. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve hot, garnished with lime slices.

Make 4 servings.
