  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh root ginger
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 12 fresh basil leaves, chopped
  • 100g/4oz butter, softened
  • 75ml/3fl oz dry white wine
  • Soak 12 bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them burning.
  • Put all the seafood in a bowl, and mix with the lime juice, oil and basil. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Thread the salmon, prawns and scallops alternately onto the skewers, adding a bay leaf to each skewer.
  • To make the sauce, beat together the ginger, lime juice, basil and butter with a little seasoning until well combined.
  • Cook the kebabs under a medium grill or on a barbecue for 8–10 minutes, turning occasionally, until evenly cooked and lightly browned on all sides.
  • Meanwhile, boil the wine until it is reduced to 2 tablespoons. Remove from the heat, and gradually whisk into the sauce. Serve the hot kebabs with the sauce.
