In the above video, chef Rich Harris from Scoff demonstrates how to make delicious BBQ prawns with aioli that are guaranteed to impress your mates.

Serves: 4
Prep: 2 hours
Cook: 2 minutes
Ingredients:
24 Raw tiger prawns with shells on
1 tsp chilli flakes
1 tbsp Olive oil
Sea salt
Black pepper
2 egg yolks
2 tsp Dijon mustard
6 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
150 ml vegetable oil
150 ml rapeseed oil
Juice of ½ a lemon
Lemon wedges to serve
Step 1: Prepare The Prawns
Marinade the prawns with the garlic, chilli flakes and olive oil. Then cover with clingfilm and refrigerate for 1-2 hours, or overnight if possible.
Step 2: Make The Aioli
Meanwhile, put the egg yolks, mustard and garlic in a food processor and blitz until smooth. With the motor still running, add the vegetable and rapeseed oils in a slow, steady stream until the mixture is thick. Add the lemon juice, blitz again and season to taste.
Step 3: Cook The Prawns
Preheat the barbecue to a high heat. Remove the prawns from the fridge and bring to room temperature. Cook the prawns for 1-2 minutes on each side until pink.
Step 4: Serve
Transfer to a platter and serve with the aioli and lemon wedges.
