SATE PRAWNS (SHRIMP)
This is a combination of two sate recipes from the Australian Womens Weekly Chinese Cookbook circa 1970's. We use Jimmy's Sate sauce which is a bean based sate with peanuts but they are not the predominate flavour or ingredient. Have not included time for peeling prawns but it takes me about 30 to 40 minutes to peel a kilo (the larger the prawns the quicker to peel). We have also used this recipe to make beef sate which takes a little longer to cook, we use rump which I pound out and cut into small bite size squares.

SATE PRAWNS (SHRIMP)
This is from the Australian Women's Weekly Chinese cookbook circa early 70's and a recipe the DH and I love. It does not produce a lot of sauce but is lovely served over rice or we like to serve in the traditional manner as explained in the recipe directions.. Please note most of the preparation time is taken up in peeling and preparing prawns, the larger your prawns the shorter the prep time but we like to use small river prawns so it usually takes me about an hour to peel and prep but when I use large king prawns it usually only takes 30 to 40 minutes.

Tips:
- Use fresh, large prawns or shrimp for the best flavor and texture. Smaller shrimp can be used, but they will need to be cooked for a shorter amount of time.
- Marinate the prawns or shrimp in a flavorful mixture of spices and herbs before cooking. This will help to infuse them with flavor and make them more tender.
- Cook the prawns or shrimp over high heat until they are just cooked through. Overcooking will make them tough and rubbery.
- Serve the prawns or shrimp immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular choices include peanut sauce, sweet and sour sauce, and chili sauce.
- If you are using bamboo skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before using. This will help to prevent them from burning.
- Be careful when handling the skewers, as they can be sharp.
- Enjoy your delicious prawn or shrimp satay!
