Simple Prawn

Simple Prawn

A very classic yet simple prawn recipe my mom would cook for me whenever I visit home.

Ingredients:

  • 6 cloves of garlic
  • 4 slices of ginger
  • 1 bird’s eye chili
  • 1 kg of fresh prawns (deshell)
  • Salt
  • Potato starch

Instructions:

  • Deshell your prawns and made sure you devein the prawns (click here to view videos on how to deshell your prawns)
  • FYI – with the prawns in Malaysia, you can leave the green stuff in. As for prawns in Australia, you will have to remove all gunks
  • Heat up your cooking pan/wok with vegetable cooking oil, then add in garlic cloves and ginger slices, then add some salt
  • When both garlics and ginger turns slightly brown, add your fresh prawns to the wok/pan and stir fry it
  • Cook the prawns up to 3 or 4 minutes and add some chili if you’d like it spicy
  • In a bowl, add 1 teaspoon of potato starch and add some water to the bowl. Pour a tiny amount of the mixture to the prawns
  • Remove the prawns from your pan/wok when they’re done (refer to the photo to the right)
