Grilled Prawns With Sweet Corn And Caramelised Coconut Dressing

preparation time 20 mins

cooking time 20 mins

serves 8

Main Ingredients

  • vegetable oil, for deep-frying
  • 4 round rice paper sheets, broken into 4 pieces
  • 2 corn cobs, in husks, silks removed
  • 20 large green king prawns, head and tail in tact, halved
  • Sea-salt flakes and freshly ground black pepper, to season
  • ¼ cup roasted salted peanuts, roughly chopped
  • 1 long red chilli, seeded, thinly sliced
  • ½ cup coriander leaves

Caramelised Coconut Dressing Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp coconut sugar
  • 40ml water
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 1 clove garlic, finely grated
  • 1 tsp finely grated fresh ginger
  • 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil, light in flavour
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 tsp fish sauce
  • 1 kaffir lime leaf, very finely shredded

Method

  1. To make rice paper crisps, heat enough oil in a small saucepan to come 3cm up the side of the pan until 180°C. Add rice paper rounds, one at a time, cooking for 3 seconds or until puffed, white and crisp. Immediately remove from oil, transfer to a paper towel lined plate and allow to drain. Repeat with remaining rice paper.
  2. To make caramelised coconut dressing, put sugar into a small non-stick pan. Add water and cook, stirring until sugar dissolves. Continue to cook for about 1 minute or until mixture just begins to thicken, then remove from heat and stir in lime juice, garlic and ginger. Set aside to cool to room temperature then transfer to a medium bowl. Stir in oils, fish sauce and kaffir lime leaf, then set aside.
  3. Preheat oven grill to high, or alternatively preheat oven to 250°C fan-forced ( 270°C  conventional).
  4. Preheat a chargrill plate or barbecue grill plate over high heat. Grill corn for about 10 mins, turning, until lightly charred. Use a large sharp knife to cut kernels from corn. Season.
  5. Meanwhile, put prawns in a large bowl, add 2 Tbsp of the dressing and toss to coat.
  6. Grill prawns for 3 minutes each side, until lightly charred and cooked through.
  7. Arrange prawns, corn and rice paper crisps on a large serving platter. Drizzle half of the dressing over the top and serve remaining on the side. Scatter over peanuts, chilli and coriander and serve immediately.
