<\/span>Mary Berry’s Tiger Prawn and Coriander “Courgetti”<\/span><\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n
A super healthy and quick supper. By using a spiralizer, the courgette (zucchini) becomes like spaghetti but with fewer carbs! If you only have large courgettes (zucchini), cut them in half lengthways and scoop out the seeds before spiralizing.<\/span>
<\/div>It is essential to try and serve immediately, otherwise the courgettes lose their texture and become watery.<\/span><\/div>\n

    <\/span>Instructions<\/span><\/h3>
    • Slice the courgettes\/zucchini in half lengthways then put them through a Spiralizer to make long courgette\/zucchini spaghetti – "courgetti".<\/span><\/div><\/li>
    • Place a large frying pan over a high heat until very hot. Add the oil, spring onions, chilli and garlic and fry for 10 seconds. Add the prawns and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Fry for 1\u20132 minutes to heat through.<\/div><\/li>
    • Add two-thirds of the courgetti and the lemon juice along with more seasoning to the pan, and fry quickly over the high heat for 1 minute, or until just wilted.<\/div><\/li>
    • Turn off the heat, add the remaining courgetti (this will add to the texture) and the coriander\/cilantro and toss together.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
    • Serve at once in warm bowls.<\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n
      <\/div>\n

      <\/span>Notes<\/span><\/h3>
      If you don\u2019t have a Spiralizer, you can use a vegetable peeler to cut thin ribbons of courgetti\/zucchini, about 3mm\/0.1inch thick, then use a sharp knife to slice the strips into long thin strips.<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":8271,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2019,362,366,1714,136,2519,1715,140,696,138],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8275","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-appetizer","category-breakfast-brunch","category-british","category-dairy-free","category-entree","category-fried","category-gluten-free","category-side","category-snack","category-stir-fry"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/prawn_coriander.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8275","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8275"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8275\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8280,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8275\/revisions\/8280"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8271"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8275"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8275"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8275"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
