1. 1.

   Peel and finely chop the garlic and shallot. In a small pot combine citrus juice with olive oil, garlic, shallot, ginger, cumin and a pinch of salt; let it infuse briefly, then bring to a boil with sugar and a touch of cayenne pepper and simmer for about 5 minutes.

   During the final grill time brush the skewers with generous amounts of orange sauce and grill briefly again until the glaze has taken color. Serve the shrimp skewers with warm mango sauce.
