Vietnamese Grilled Jumbo Shrimp on Sugarcane Sticks, These are so good! The sauce that accompanies them is a must (Vietnamese Dipping Sauce (Nuoc Cham)) Sugar cane is usually in the produce section of my grocery store and it is also sold in the Asian section in cans Wonderful served on a bed of rice and drenched in the Dipping Sauce! Recipe adapted from grill master, Steven Raichlen , I just realized that I forgot to rate this last Christmas, when I did a Vietnamese Christmas dinner for our friends! I’m not a prawn fan at all and even I thought these were great – they went in record time! So easy to make and very, very tasty Thank you for posting such a wonderful recipe!, These are so good!
