BBQ Seafood Skewers

With the sun shining there's nothing better to do on an evening then getting in the garden, having a barbeque and relaxing with a beer, or a glass of wine. And whats more, with Spice Fusions Masala Blends you can create simple marinades in minutes to add a fresh and spicy twist to your evening!

At home we love cooking marinated fish on the barbeque, hence why I'm starting with the receipe for seafood skewers, but, by following the reciepe below and using the Masala Blends for meat and vegetables instead, you can also create marinades to spice up your meat and vegetables (Inch sliced marinated aubergines are another favourite and a speciality of my mum's!)

Spicy seafood skewers with vegetables marinated with a fusion of the Masala Blend for Seafood, yogurt, tomato puree and coriander. Can be oven cooked, grilled or barbequed.

Ingredients
A splash of cooking oil
2 x 20g Pot Shots Masala Blend for Seafood
2 Tablespoons yogurt
1 Teaspoon tomato puree
1 Tablespoon finely chopped coriander
500g White fish. Cut the fish into 2 inch cubes. You can also use a mix of Seafood including prawns and salmon or whatever you prefer.
A selection of chunky cut vegetables of your choice for example courgettes, peppers, cherry tomatoes, onions, aubergine.
8 Skewers (soak them in water for 1/2 hour before using as this will help to stop them burning)

Method
1. In a large bowl mix together the oil, Masala Blend, yogurt, tomato puree and coriander.

2. Add the fish and coat thorougly in the marinade. You can cover and leave this to marinade in fridge for upto 4 hours of overnight.

3. Take your skewers and thread on the fish alternatively with the vegetables.

4. If you are oven cooking these then preheat your oven to 180 degrees C/gas mark 4 and cook for about 15 minutes. Please ensure that all food is piping hot throughout before serving.

Serving Tip: These skewers are great served with a yogurt and mint dip or just plain old tomato ketchup!
