Yuzu is to Japanese cuisine what lime is to Thai. Yuzu can be used anywhere you would use lemon. A small, yellow-skinned citrus, it's loved for its tart, smack-in-the-mouth tang.

Ingredients

  • 6 fresh green prawns in shell

  • Handful of rocket or cress leaves

  • 1 tsp sesame seeds

  • Togarashi (Japanese sprinkles)

Dressing

  • 1 tbsp yuzu juice

  • 1 tbsp Japanese mirin

  • 4 tbsp grape seed or light olive oil

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce

  • 1 tsp finely grated garlic

  • 1 tbsp whole egg mayonnaise

  •  

Method

  1. 1. Heat an overhead grill.

    2. Cut the prawns in half lengthwise with a cleaver and devein.

    3. Whisk the dressing ingredients together until smooth.

    4. Brush the prawns with the dressing and grill them cut-side up for 3 minutes or until just cooked (I like charring the shells a little, too).

    5. Arrange on plates with rocket or cress, spoon over the remaining dressing and scatter with sesame seeds and togarashi.
