Barbecued Prawns with Melon, Spinach and mint Salad





Well we also served these with quite a few other things but actually the best ones were as follows:
Skewer your prawns, either shelled or not. We found shelled and marinated in a mix of garlic, sesame oil, ginger, soy and honey was pretty good. Barbie.

Cube your 'rock melon' (I think it's honeydew in the UK), mix with baby spinach leaves and a small amount of fresh mint. No dressing necessary at all.

We also did a dip of garlic, olive oil, and basil. The mild flavours seemed to set off the prawns admirably. Recommend.

Also served with a side of roasted whole sweet potatoes, simply sliced lengthways when very done and buttered and seasoned. Then sliced into …. well, slices. We're not technical here.

Deliriously engaging dish. Palate-ticklingly tasty. Enjoy.
