Method
Step 1.
First marinate the prawns. Toss the prawns with the garlic, ginger, sunflower oil and a big pinch of salt. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Step 2.
Meanwhile, cut the mangoes into thick slices, then cut each slice across into batons.
Step 3.
To make the dressing, mix all of the ingredients together and set aside for the sugar to dissolve.
Step 4.
Heat a griddle pan until smoking hot, then sear the prawns on both sides until the flesh turns pink and attractively charred at the edges.
Step 5.
Toss the prawns with the mango, spring onions and dressing, garnish with coriander and serve immediately.
