Cuisine: asian
Ingredients: 4 tablespoons vegetable oil; 6 garlic chives, finely sliced; 12 medium green ling prawns, unpeeled; Vermicelli noodles, cooked to package directions* (See Cook's Note); 2 tablespoons crushed roasted peanuts; 1 green mango, peeled, pitted, and sliced; 1 green banana, halved and thinly sliced lengthways; 1 Lebanese cucumber, halved and thinly sliced lengthways; 6 lettuce leaves, torn in half; 1 teaspoon fish sauce; Nuoc mam cham dipping fish sauce

Directions

Special equipment:

12 bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 20 minutes

Heat a grill to medium heat.
In a small saucepan, add the vegetable oil, sliced garlic chives and bring to the simmer. Stir, then take the pan off the heat and transfer the garlic chive oil to a bowl.
Thread each prawn onto a skewer (tail through the top of the head) and char grill on medium heat for 2 minutes on each side, or until cooked.
While the prawns are grilling, place the vermicelli noodle on a plate and reheat it in the microwave for 1 minute on high.

Place the wrapped prawn on the lettuce, then add the mango, banana, and cucumber and roll up.
