Try this Asian-inspired dip with fresh spring rolls; kebabs of chicken, lamb, beef, pork or fish; barbecued prawns and scallops. Spoon over a little of the hoisin and lime sauce, then sprinkle with the coconut mixture.

4 tablespoons desiccated coconut
1 teaspoon brown sugar
finely grated zest 1 lime
½ teaspoon sea salt
chilli powder to taste
