Method
 

To make the sauce
  1. Setup your Big Green Egg for a direct cook at 200°C.
  2. Place the peppers directly on to the coals. Turn them occasionally and cook until nicely charred all over (optional).
  3. De-seed all the peppers and chillis. Chop into small chunks.
  4. Add all the ingredients including the peppers and chilli to a pestle and mortar (or blender) and blend until smooth.
  5. Place in the fridge for about an hour so it's nice and cold (optional).
To cook the prawns
  1. De-vein the prawns.
  2. Place 1 jumbo prawn or several smaller prawns on to one skewer. Repeat until you've skewered all the prawns. We used soaked wooden skewers during the cook.
  3. Place your prawns on the grid. Every so often, turn your prawn skewers over.
  4. Cook your prawns until the internal temperature of the prawns has reached at least 63°C.
  5. Serve the skewers immediately with your Vietnamese Greed Seafood sauce.
