  1. Mix the dill dressing ingredients together.
  2. Season the tiger prawns and pan-fry them in the olive oil, turning them over during cooking. The flesh will become opaque when they are cooked.

  4. To serve: remove the prawns and thread them onto the skewers, if they are to be used, and then sprinkle them with the sumac
