    This was so good! The tamarind chutney is heads and shoulders above the coriander mint chutney.

    Reminds me of authentic Indian restaurants. I enjoyed it. It is a bit heavy so I would suggest pairing it with something else to make a full meal so it doesn’t feel like too much.

    I liked this but the recipe just didnt work well for me. The batter was too thick that I had to add water to loosen it up. It just wont stick to the prawns while frying. still thought it tasted pretty good.

    Divine! Really easy to make, just as long as you remember to leave time for the marinade to work it's magic.
