Steps:
- First, make the dipping sauce. Crush the garlic, coriander and chilli using a pestle and mortar. (If you don't have one, just finely chop.) Pound in the sugar until dissolved, then add the lime juice and fish sauce. It should taste sweet, salty and spicy.
- To make the spice mix, toast the Sichuan and black peppercorns in a frying pan over a medium heat for 1 min or until fragrant. Finely grind in a spice mill or using a pestle and mortar, then add the salt and chilli flakes and mix together. Transfer to a bowl.
- Combine the spice mix with the cornflour. Heat 7.5cm of oil in a large wok or deep heavy-based saucepan. You can test the temperature by frying a small piece of bread - it should sizzle instantly and take 20 secs to turn golden. Toss the prawns with the spice mix, shake off the excess and deep-fry, in batches, for 1-2 mins or until crisp at the edges and starting to curl. Remove with a slotted spoon, drain on a baking tray lined with kitchen paper and keep warm while you cook the remaining prawns. Scatter over the pea shoots or salad leaves, if you like, and serve with the dipping sauce.

Steps:
- Stir together the lime juice, chili oil, and sea salt in a mixing bowl until the salt dissolves. Cut the shrimp through the back vein nearly through to the other side, leaving the two sides attached. Toss the shrimp in the marinade, cover, and refrigerate 4 hours. Soak the wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes.
- Make the raspberry dipping sauce by bringing the raspberry vinegar, sugar, and raspberries to a simmer in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir until the raspberries have lost their form and turned into a sauce. Scrape the raspberry mixture into a fine mesh strainer, and allow any excess liquid to drip away. Discard the liquid, and place the pulp into a small bowl. Stir in the minced jalapeno peppers to complete the dipping sauce.
- Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
- Remove the shrimp from the marinade, and thread one onto each soaked skewer. Wiggle the skewer through the shrimp so that the tails are pointing upwards. These should look like lollipops. Place the skewers onto a broiler pan.
- Cook in the preheated oven until the shrimp start to look pink and a little toasty, about 2 1/2 minutes per side. Serve with the raspberry dipping sauce.

Tips:
- Use fresh prawns: Fresh prawns have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen prawns. If you're using frozen prawns, thaw them properly before cooking.
- Cook the prawns quickly: Overcooked prawns become tough and rubbery. Cook them for just a few minutes, until they are pink and opaque.
- Use a good quality salt and pepper: The salt and pepper are the main seasonings in this dish, so it's important to use good quality ones. Use a coarse sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Add the lime juice and chili at the end: Adding the lime juice and chili at the end prevents them from overpowering the other flavors in the dish.
- Serve the prawns immediately: Salt and pepper prawns are best served immediately, while they are still hot and crispy.
Conclusion:
Salt and pepper prawns with lime and chili dipping sauce is an easy-to-make, delicious, and versatile dish. It can be served as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. The prawns are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the lime and chili dipping sauce adds a refreshing and spicy flavor. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
