- Prepare the charcoal barbecue for direct cooking over medium-high heat (210°C-250°C).
- Prepare your barbecue for direct cooking over medium-high heat (210°C-250°C). If you are using a Weber Pulse, preheat your barbecue with the lid closed and your control knob(s) on high for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the barbecue reaches 260°C.
- Prepare your barbecue for direct cooking over medium-high heat. If you are using a Weber SmokeFire, set the temperature to 270°C and preheat.
- To create the skewers combine all of the prawn mixture ingredients. Work the mixture with a spoon or your hands, mixing for a couple of minutes to help thicken the mixture. If needed you can add extra cornflour to bring it together. Ideally the mixture will be soft but will just hold shape. Divide the mixture into 8 portions and shape around the skewers (if using). Spray the top side of the meat with olive oil cooking spray to help prevent them from sticking to the grill (see note).
- Brush the cooking grills clean with a wire brush. Place the skewers, oiled side down first, onto the cooking grill over direct medium-high heat with the lid closed. Grill on each side for 5 minutes until caramelised sear marks are visible and skewers are cooked through.

- Once your barbecue has preheated, brush the cooking grills clean with a wire brush. If you are using a Weber Pulse: turn the control knob(s) to one notch greater than medium (240°C-260°C). Place the skewers, oiled side down first, onto the cooking grill over direct medium-high heat with the lid closed. Grill on each side for 5 minutes until caramelised sear marks are visible and skewers are cooked through.
- Once your barbecue has preheated to the set temperature (SmokeFire: 270°C), brush the cooking grills clean with a wire brush. Place the skewers, oiled side down first, onto the cooking grill over direct medium-high heat with the lid closed. Grill on each side for 5 minutes until caramelised sear marks are visible and skewers are cooked through.
- Serve the skewers with the lettuce, cucumber, mint, coriander and nuoc cham dipping sauce. The idea is to use the lettuce as a wrap, wrapping the meat and herbs together, finishing with a drizzle of the dipping sauce.
