- Preheat a BBQ. Toss the prawns in the sesame oil and thread 5 onto each skewer. Mix the peppercorns, salt, star anise and chilli with the cornflour. On a flat plate roll each skewer through the flour to coat. Combine all the ingredients for the dipping sauce in a small bowl.
- Brush the BBQ grill with a little oil, grill the prawns over hot coals for about 2 mins each side until pink, crispy and cooked through. Serve with lime wedges and coriander, if you like.
