Dante’s Inferno Prawn Tacos with Mango Slaw
🔥 Dante’s Inferno Prawn Tacos with Mango Slaw
Juicy prawns need only minutes in the pan, making these Dante’s Inferno tacos a fast route to serious flavour. Sweet mango, crunchy cabbage, avocado and lime yoghurt cool the ghost-pepper warmth and keep the finished tacos fresh.
Heat warning: Dante’s Inferno contains ghost pepper. Begin with the stated minimum, avoid touching your eyes and wash your hands and utensils thoroughly after handling.

🍽️ Serving Suggestions
Put the components on the table and let everyone build their own tacos. Extra lime and yoghurt are more useful here than extra chilli.
💛 Why This Recipe Works
Mango and honey echo the prawns’ natural sweetness, while cabbage and lime cut through the glaze. Starting with ⅛ teaspoon respects the smaller quantity of food.
🧂 Try It With
Build extra flavour with Chilli Salt and Cracked Black Pepper. Add them for aroma and depth rather than using more Inferno simply for heat.
