- Pre-heat the grill to high. In a medium bowl, mix together the curry powder, 1 tbsp sunflower oil, the yogurt and the lime zest. Stir in the defrosted king prawns, then season with black pepper and set aside.
- Arrange the onion and peppers on a baking tray lined with foil. Toss with the remaining 1 tbsp oil and season. Grill, turning frequently, for 7-8 mins, until tender and starting to char.
- Meanwhile, combine the tomato, cucumber, sugar or agave and lime juice in a bowl. Season and set aside for 5 minutes, then drain any excess juice and add the yogurt, garlic and mint.
- Skewer the prawns onto 3 or 4 metal skewers and lay on the baking tray on top of the veg. Grill for 2 mins then turn and cook for a further 1-2 mins, until golden.
- Meanwhile, warm the naan bread according to pack instructions. Remove the prawns from the skewers and pile onto the naan with the vegetables and some of the raita.
- Tip: For a veggie twist, try swapping the prawns for chunks of paneer.
