Grilled Garlic Butter Prawns

Grilled Garlic Butter Prawns
We had another BBQ evening last day before Ramadan 2014. We would like to take this opportunity to wish all Muslim 'Selamat Berpuasa' and a blessed Ramadan. Anyway, it was a seafood BBQ. We had a very simple dish called Grilled Garlic Butter Prawn. When having a seafood BBQ, Garlic Butter Prawn will always on my list. The reason why, it is simple, easy and tasty. Things that you need for this recipe are butter, garlic, salt and prawns.

Grilled Prawns
I am from Melaka, and over here grilled seafood usually served with Nasi Lemak (Coconut Rice). Sound wired, but I like it. However, my wife still prefer to eat with plain rice. Anyway, she has prepared a very delicious Nasi Lemak for the evening. Click Nasi Lemak for recipe.

She has also prepared sauce/dip for this. We call it 'Air Asam Cili Kicap". It was a perfect combination. However, without  the sauce, the Garlic Butter Prawns can still be a winner. Please find below the recipes for you to follow:
