The flavors in prawn dishes are incredibly diverse, ranging from delicate and sweet to spicy and savory, depending on the preparation and ingredients used.
Prawns themselves have a naturally sweet and slightly briny flavor. This inherent sweetness pairs well with a variety of ingredients. Common flavor profiles include: Citrusy (lemon, lime), Spicy (chili peppers, ginger, garlic), Herbal (cilantro, basil, parsley), Savory (soy sauce, fish sauce, butter, garlic), and Rich (coconut milk, cream). The specific flavors are highly dependent on the recipe. For example, grilled prawns might feature a simple marinade of olive oil, garlic, and herbs, while prawn curries could incorporate a complex blend of spices like turmeric, cumin, coriander, and chili.

Prawn Preparation
Devein prawns before cooking. This removes the dark vein along the back, which can sometimes have a gritty texture. You can leave the tails on for presentation or remove them for easier eating.
Cooking Time
Prawns cook quickly! Overcooking will result in rubbery and tough prawns. Cook until they turn pink and opaque, usually just a few minutes per side depending on size.
Freshness
Buy fresh prawns whenever possible. Look for plump, firm prawns with a fresh, sea-like smell. Avoid prawns that smell fishy or have a slimy texture.
Grilling Considerations
When grilling prawns, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the prawns with oil to prevent sticking. Grill for 2-3 minutes per side, or until pink and opaque. Use skewers to prevent the prawns from falling through the grill grates.
