Ingredients

4 servings
  • 6 fresh water prawn (jumbo prawn or big tiger prawn)
  • 1 ½ tablespoons cooking oil
  • 2 cloves garlic (coarsely chopped)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine
  • ½ teaspoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon chopped scallions

Steps

  1. Using a sharp knife, make a shallow incision along the back of the prawn. Remove the dark vein, then rinse with water and pat dry with paper towels

  2. Add oil to a wok or pan. Once the oil is heated, add the garlic and stir-fry until aromatic and lightly browned.

  3. Add the fresh water prawns, soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, and sugar. Stir well to combine.

  4. Use a wok turner to press down on each prawn, pan-frying both sides until they are fully cooked.

  5. Add the chopped scallions and stir to combine with the prawns. Serve hot with steamed rice.
