Method

1. In a large bowl, place the prawns, oil, garlic, lime juice, coriander, cumin and chilli flakes and mix well. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
2. Meanwhile, to make the avocado salsa, in a small bowl combine the tomato, avocado,
red onion and lime juice. Season generously with salt and pepper.
3. Heat a BBQ hot plate to high. Transfer the prawns from the marinade and cook
for 3-4 minutes, turning until the prawns are pink. Season with salt while cooking. Serve the prawns with the salsa.
Helpful Tip:
Keep firm avocados next to ripe bananas in the fruit bowl. Once ripe, store in the fridge.
