How to make it
- FOR THE SKEWERED SHRIMP: Peel and devein the shrimp and remove their tails (they won’t be needing them any longer). Soak the onions in cold water for 30 minutes and rinse them well.
- Skewer the shrimp, onions and the peppers one after the other using four of each per kebob.
- Mince the garlic finely and combine it together with the olive oil, apple juice, coriander and honey. Use this to marinate the kebobs 25 minutes prior to the grilling. Reserve the marinade to use as a baste when grilling them until done. Try for a little light char on the onions and peppers.
- FOR THE LOBSTER: Leave the lobster tails whole, clean them well.
- Put all the ingredients for the sauce (except the oil which is to be added at the end) into a small sauce pan and reduce it to a thin syrup.
- The lobster tails will be simply hurled onto the grille and basted with this sauce as they cook – Start the basting when they are about halfway done.
- FOR THE CRAYFISH CAKES: Roughly chop the crayfish and combine them with the eggs and the bread crumbs. Mix together gently adding the lemon juice, scallions and the salt and cayenne. Since these are going to be grilled the mixture should be very tight. Refrigerate it for an hour and then make eight evenly sized well rounded cakes.
- Mince the onion very finely and finely chop the celery leaf and cilantro. Mix them together with everything else and chill.
- When grilling these crayfish cakes be sure the grille is well greased and cook them where the heat is not too intense.
- SERVE such a combination with a crisp light ale and plenty of it. And a few suitable side dishes.
