  2. Step 2

    Meanwhile, use your hands to squeeze excess liquid from the cucumber. Place the cucumber in a medium bowl with the mint, coriander, remaining cumin and remaining yoghurt. Season with pepper and stir to combine.

  3. Step 3

    Thread the prawns onto metal or soaked bamboo skewers and spray with olive oil spray.
