\nIn a small bowl, whisk all the ingredients for the dipping sauce, until the sugar has dissolved.
\nHeat the oil in a large frying pan and cook the fishcakes for 4-5 minutes each side until golden brown and cooked through.
\nServe immediately with the dipping sauce.<\/p>\n
\nPreheat the grill to medium- high. Thread the chicken and vegetables alternately onto 4 metal skewers, (or 8 wooden skewers which have been soaked in water).
\nCook under the grill for 4-6 minutes each side until golden brown, basting occasionally with any remaining marinade.
\nSprinkle with the sesame seeds and serve with steamed rice<\/p>\n
