Method:

Remove the prawn shells and alimentary canals, keeping the tails intact.
Blend the marinade ingredients and marinate the prawns in the mixture for three hours.
Soak the vermicelli in hot water until soft and wrap around the prawns.
Deep-fry the prawns in hot oil until golden brown and thread three prawns onto each lemongrass stalk.
Whisk together all the dipping ingredients and serve in small bowls with the prawns.
