Directions
Trim off the heads, whiskers and legs but leave the tails attached to make them easier to hold.
Bring 2 litres water to the boil in a large pan with the salt and sliced ginger.
Add the prawns and poach for 1 -2 minutes only, until they have changed colour.
Drain well.
To make the dip sauce, heat the oil in a small pan until it is very hot.
Place the shredded ginger, spring onions and fresh chillies in a bowl.
Slowly pour the hot oil over and stir in the remaining ingredients.
