Instructions
Prepare a hot fire in an outdoor barbecue.
Grind all the mustard seeds, lemon myrtle, dried garlic, mountain pepper, and bush tomato together in a coffee mill.
Melt the butter in a small pan and add the ginger; remove from the heat.
Transfer ¼ cup of the ginger butter to a small bowl and set aside in a warm place.
The shrimp can be skewered or placed in a barbecue basket to facilitate flipping.
Brush with the remaining ginger butter and dust with the spice blend.
Grill for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until the spices form a light crust and the shrimp are opaque throughout.
Mix the lime juice with the reserved ginger butter and serve as dipping sauce.
