Serves 4 as a starter
|
|
|
|
Sugarcane adds unusual sweetness and it is lovely to chew the stick a little
|
|
after eating the prawn paste. It is available from Asian and Caribbean shops.
|
|
If you can't find it, you could make these with sticks of split lemongrass,
|
|
which will alter the character of the dish but in a good way.
|
|
|
|
_For the prawns_
|
|
|
|
500g raw organic tiger prawns
|
|
|
|
2 cloves of garlic, grated
|
|
|
|
1 egg white
|
|
|
|
1 tbsp fish sauce
|
|
|
|
a pinch of sugar
|
|
|
|
2 tbsp groundnut oil, for frying
|
|
|
|
8 split sugarcane sticks
|
|
|
|
_For the nuoc cham sauce_
|
|
|
|
1 tbsp palm sugar
|
|
|
|
1 tsp freshly chopped garlic
|
|
|
|
½-1 tsp chopped green and red chillies
|
|
|
|
2 tbsp fish sauce
|
|
|
|
Put the prawns, garlic, egg white, fish sauce and sugar into a food processor
|
|
and whiz to a smooth paste. Take a small handful, and form into a slim
|
|
sausage, wrapping it around the sugarcane stick. Repeat with the rest, making
|
|
a total of eight.
|
|
|
|
Mix together all the sauce ingredients with two tablespoons of water and leave
|
|
to stand. Heat the oil in a pan and gently fry the prawn-wrapped sticks until
|
|
the meat is opaque, pink and firm to the touch. Serve the sugarcane prawns
|
|
hot, with the sauce to dip into, and some steamed rice.

**Wine choice 2008** The Naked Grape Riesling, Ernest Loosen, Pfalz, Germany
|
|
£6.64, Waitrose. The summer months and fresh, Asian spices give the perfect
|
|
opportunity to recommend this riesling, one of my perennial favourites. A
|
|
touch of sweetness among the aromatics absorbs the chilli heat. It is
|
|
dangerously easy to drink, so if you have guests round make sure there is
|
|
plenty of back-up in the fridge.
