Bangkok Dancing Prawns
Recipe By : Chef Boonsuib Thomawong
Adapted from Chef Boonsuib Thomawong's chef's special at Bangkok Villa Restaurant
Thursday, February 15, 2001 / The Lakeland Ledger
Yields 2 servings

4 jumbo or 8 large fresh shrimps -- heads removed
6 ounces crabmeat -- minced
1/2 pound ground pork
2 teaspoons garlic salt
2 tablespoons cilantro -- chopped
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon soya bean sauce or 1 teaspoon salt
4 long wooden skewers -- set in water for 20
minutes ahead of time (4 to 8)

Wash and dry the shrimp. Leaving the tail and shell casing on, slice the inside curve of the shrimp down the middle, making sure not to cut through the shell casing on the back. Gently pull out the vein from the inside.

Carefully thread skewer from the open end of the shrimp through the tail, taking care not to break through the back casing.

In a bowl, mix crabmeat and pork together and then mix in all other ingredients, forming a moist ball.

Place about one teaspoon of the pork-crabmeat mixture inside the open part of the shrimp, and then fold the shrimp around the mixture, not closing it completely, but with some of the pork-crabmeat mixture showing.

Heat a lightly oiled grill or large pan to medium-high, and place shrimp on the grill on one of its shell sides, grilling for a minute or so until grill marks appear. Turn to the other side, again grilling until the marks appear.

Then baste the pork-crabmeat mixture with coconut curry sauce (recipe below), and grill, pork-crabmeat mixture side down for 8 minutes or so, until you are sure the pork is cooked through.

Remove from grill and serve with white jasmine rice and a Thai or Vietnamese dipping sauce. (See recipes below)
