  1. 1

    Cook the basmati rice in simmering water for 12 minutes or until tender. Drain well. Meanwhile, preheat the broiler to medium-high. In a bowl, mix together 4 tablespoons plain yogurt with 2 tablespoons tandoori curry paste. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Tip onto a foil-lined baking tray, along with the marinade, and broil for 4-5 minutes or until just cooked through.

  2. 2

    For the raita, peel long, thin strips from the cucumber with a vegetable peeler, then pat dry on kitchen paper.

  3. 3

    Put into a bowl, add the yogurt, mint leaves and some seasoning and mix together. Divide the rice between plates and spoon the shrimp and raita alongside.

  4. 4

    Garnish with extra fresh mint sprigs. Serve with lime wedges, to squeeze over, if you like.
