  • 1 Tomato chopped
  • 1 Tbls of fresh chopped coriander

Method

1

Firstly if using wooden skewers the soak in water for at least 30 minutes so they don’t burn on the bbq.

2

Mix the garlic, ginger, chilli, fish sauce, soy sauce & oil to make the marinade

3

Put the prawns onto the skewers, I use mini 15cm skewers that hold 3 prawns to each skewer, you could use large skewers if you prefer.

4

Marinate the prawns for 30 minutes

5

Make sure your bbq is really hot, then add the prawn skewers to the bqq, directly over the heat.

6

After 1 minute turn over the prawn skewers and continue to cook for about 1 more minute until the prawns have completey changed from grey colour to pink.

7

Serve with fresh chopped coriander and lime wedges.

8

I also added a mango salad, simply chop up a fresh mango, red onion, red chilli, tomato, some coriander and serve.
