Friendly on the waistline! Finger food or a main dish served with noodles/rice and vegetables, a simple but very tasty dish. If you can't get lemon grass or lime leaves, the best substitute I can think of is to use grated lime zest. Marinating time not included.

I've made this dish several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The prawns are juicy and flavorful, and the marinade is perfect. I highly recommend this recipe.

Not a fan. The prawns were bland and the marinade was too salty. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

The prawns were a bit overcooked, but the marinade was delicious. I would try this recipe again, but I would cook the prawns for a shorter amount of time.
