Summer is the ideal season to spend plenty of time in the outdoors, and South Africans enjoy doing so, particularly when they get to chance to ‘braai’ something on an open fire.

Why not exchange the lamb, beef and chicken for fresh seafood this summer? Grilled prawns are light, easy and quick to braai, and make the ideal food partner to a bottle of chilled Kunjani rosé. Serve it with a green salad with fresh and seasonal pomegranates to create the ideal summer feast.

Ingredients

• 12 raw king prawns
• 1 tbsp sea salt
• 2 limes, cut into wedges

• 2 tbsp rice wine vinegar

Instructions

1. Grill the prawns on the barbecue for 5 minutes, turning once, until charred and completely pink.
2. Mix all the dipping sauce ingredients.
3. Scatter the sea salt and lime wedges over the grilled prawns and serve with the dipping sauce.
