Quick to make and a little bit nutty. One to have when you want something cosy but not heavy, and you'd rather not stand at the hob for long. Dip generously.

Peanut butter on prawns sounds a bit odd until you try it, and then you'll wonder why you didn't sooner. The prawns sit in a peanut butter, lime and garlic marinade while you chop the veg, then cook in a few minutes. Whatever marinade is left gets bubbled up into a dipping sauce. It all goes with a bowl of cool, limey rice with tomatoes and cucumber, so you get something fresh and something savoury on the same plate. With 33g of protein at 430 calories, it's a tidy midweek dinner for two.
