What to do:
1. Make the glaze by heating the oil in a 2- or 3-quart saucepan over medium high heat and in it sauté the garlic, ginger and lemongrass for a few minutes.
2. Reduce heat to low and stir in the remaining ingredients.
3. Divide the mixture in two, setting aside one half for serving as glaze/drizzle. Use the other half for basting or marinating the raw shrimp.
Note: Do not mix liquid from the two halves to avoid contaminating the glaze/drizzle.
