3 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tsp salt
12 raw prawns
1 tbsp olive oil
For the Aioli
2 heaped tbsps mayonnaise (freshly made or bought)

Preparation
In a bowl, mix together the Piri Piri blend, lemon juice, ginger, garlic and salt. Add the prawns to the mixture. For maximum flavour, leave them to marinate for an hour or so.
For the Aioli add lime juice, zest and garlic to the mayonnaise set aside.
Heat a griddle pan and add a little olive oil. Add the prawns to the pan and griddle for a few minutes, turning occasionally until they are cooked through. Serve straightaway, with the zesty aioli.
