Ready in 30 minutes, this easy Barbecued Prawns with Cheat's Bearnaise recipe is perfect for laid-back entertaining.

What you will need:

  • 2 eschalots, finely chopped
  • 1/3 cup red wine vinegar
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 2 tsp dijon mustard
  • 2 tsp white wine vinegar
  • 3/4 cup rice bran oil
  • 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh tarragon leaves
  • 24 large green prawns, peeled, deveined (tails intact)
  • 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh chives
  • Sliced and toasted baguette bread, to serve

How it's made:

Place eschalot and red wine vinegar in a small saucepan. Bring to the boil over medium-high heat. Boil for 3 minutes or until vinegar has almost evaporated. Set aside to cool. Strain. Discard any liquid. 

Meanwhile, process egg yolks, mustard and white wine vinegar in a small food processor until combined. Season. With motor operating, add 2/3 cup of the oil in a slow, steady stream. Transfer to a bowl. Add eschalot and half the tarragon. Stir until combined. 

Place prawns and half the remaining oil in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Heat a barbecue grill on high. Add prawns. Cook for 2 minutes each side or until pink, lightly charred and just cooked through. 

Spread sauce on a serving platter. Arrange hot prawns on top. Sprinkle with chives and remaining tarragon. Drizzle with remaining oil. Serve immediately with bread.
