Method

Blend galangal, ginger, lemongrass, garlic, chilli, lime zest, juice, soy sauce, coriander roots, and dried coconut into a thick paste.

Massage the paste into the prawns inside a sealed bag and marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour.

Shave the fresh coconut into a frying pan and dry-roast over medium heat until lightly toasted.

Grill the prawns on a hot griddle pan for 2 to 3 minutes until they are pink and opaque.

Serve prawns garnished with coriander leaves, toasted coconut shavings, and lime wedges.
