INDONESIA
Prawns the size of lobsters, grilled crackling crisp in the shells, basted with a succulent, sweet-salty mixture of butter and sweet soy sauce-this is one of the specialties of Jakarta’s famous fish house, Sunda Kelapa, and it is delicious enough to eat with your hands, which is what most of the customers do. We can’t get those huge prawns here, but if you live in the Pacific Northwest or Hawaii, try making this recipe with spot prawns; otherwise, use jumbo shrimp in the shells. Serve with Javanese Salad Plate and Shallot Sambal, and steamed rice.
_ tbs butter, unsalted
_ tbs soy sauce, sweet (ketjap manis), or 1 1/2 tablespoons each regular soy sauce and molasses
_ tbs lime juice, fresh
_ 1/2 lb shrimp, jumbo, or spot prawns, shells left on but deveined and butterflied
1. Preheat the grill to high.
2. Melt the butter in a small saucepan. Remove from the heat and stir in the sweet soy sauce and lime juice. Brush the cut sides of the prawns with the mixture.
3. When ready to cook, oil the grill grate. Arrange the prawns, cut sides down, on the hot grate and grill until lightly browned on that side, about 2 minutes. Brush the shell sides with the butter mixture and turn the prawns over, using tongs. Continue to grill until lightly browned on the second side and firm and pink inside, 2 to 4 minutes, brushing once or twice with the butter mixture.
4. Transfer the prawns to serving plates or a platter, pour over any remaining butter mixture, and serve immediately.
