- Soak 12 bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent

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.
