Ingredients

Nori sesame butter

Method

1.Combine sake, sugar, garlic, vinegar and soy sauce in a shallow bowl. Add prawns and toss to coat. Set aside to marinade (5 minutes).
2.To make butter, tear nori and place in a small food processor with a pinch of salt. Process until finely chopped. Combine butter, sesame oil and garlic in a small saucepan over low heat. Add nori and cook until melted and warm (3 minutes).
3.Preheat oven grill to high. Place prawns, cut-side up on an oven tray. Place under grill and cook, turning occasionally, until prawns are just cooked through, adding onions in the last 2 minutes (8 minutes).
4.Meanwhile, cook soba noodles in boiling salted water until just tender (3-4 minutes). Place in a large bowl, add half butter; season to taste and toss to combine.
5.Divide between bowls, top with prawns, drizzle with remaining butter and scatter with shiso, mizuna leaves and salmon roe.
