Clonakilty Blackpudding and Prawn Skewers

Serves: • Prep Time: • Cook Time:

Healthy and packed with Summer flavours, these Clonakilty Blackpudding and Prawn Skewers are simply delicious and the perfect addition to enhance any of those Summer evening barbeques. Be sure to remember if you’re using wooden skewers that you soak them for a minimum of 20 minutes in cold water so they don’t catch fire on the barbeque, other than that, sit back, relax and enjoy the subtle flavours of Ireland’s favourite black pudding al fresco.
