Ingredients:
- 1 ½ tablespoons minced lemon grass
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- ½ teaspoon ground chili paste
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 16 medium-size raw prawns, peeled and deveined
- 8 (5-inch) bamboo skewers. Soaked in hot water for 30 minutes to prevent burning
- Spicy peanut sauce
- Spicy Thai cucumber salad
Directions:
Combine the lemon grass, garlic, chili paste, salt, sugar, and oil in a mixing bowl. Add the prawns and let marinate for 15 minutes. Preheat a grill to moderate.
Pierce the pointed end of each bamboo skewer through 2 prawns lengthwise, starting from the tail end to the top section.
Just before serving, grill the prawns over medium heat until just done, about 2 to 3 minutes on each side. If serving individually, place two skewers in the center of a plate and drizzle on satay sauce. Serve with a small mound of cucumber salad on the side.
