All of those answers are right, but as a former chef, the prawns in that marinade for 5 hours are going to be partially "cooked" from the acid of the lemon juice and yougart anyways, like making ceviche it is a reaction to the acid in the dish, what I would do is as the one person said, remove them and grill (on skewers or a grill pan on the stove) then like the tandoori chicken in Tikka Masala with chicken you could make a sauce by combining a bit of stock and thickening it with some cornflour, and adding a bit of the reserved marinade and a bit more spice mix, but do not boil it as the yougart will separate and curdle if heated to hot, that is how I have seen it done and would myself, mind you I am in Canada, and a trained chef with a good grasp of Indian cuisine!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Ok, but why do you need curry!? Unless I missed a point there!. Coz tikka is suppose to be dry, and you usually have it with some sort of bread!. You can either go for the Greek pita bread, and put the prawns in it, or have it with Indian wheat bread/naan!.
Saute some red onions, peppers (green,yellow,red), and tomatoes (don't overcook them) with some tikka powder, turmeric and coriander powder!. You can add a little bit of garlic, and have it with prawn tikka!. Use all of that to fll the pita bread, or roll up in the naan!.!.!.!.!.and enjoy!!
For extra flavor, you can even add some cottage cheese while satueeing the vegetables!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

just make up some more greek yoghurt with chopped corriander and lemon!.!.!.!.
or with grated cucumber and lemon and a touch of garlic!. (to dip them in on your plate!)
Grill the prawns on skewers until they start to blacken on the edges and then drizzle lemon over them!.!.!.!.
DON'T reuse the marinade!Www@FoodAQ@Com
