Pan-fried Prawns

Description
This pan/wok fried prawns recipe is probably one of the easiest but remarkably delicious recipes for fresh water prawns, pan-fried with soy sauce, cooking wine, and a wee bit of sugar. In Chinese, this dish is called Fried Shrimp. Fresh water prawn is a great choice because of the texture of the prawns, and the juicy and rich taste in the heads. I love fresh water prawns! This is one of my favorite recipes.
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon Cooking Oil
- 1 clove Garlic, Finely Chopped
- 6 whole Fresh Water Prawns (or Jumbo Prawns Or Big Prawns)
- 1 teaspoon Soy Sauce
- 1 teaspoon Rice Wine Or Shaoxing Wine
- ½ teaspoons Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Chopped Scallions
Preparation
Heat up a wok with cooking oil to medium-high heat. Drop in the chopped garlic, the fresh water prawns, soy sauce, wine, and sugar and do a few quick stirs. Use the wok turner to press each prawn down onto the bottom of the wok (pan-frying), doing this for both sides of the prawn. After 2 minutes turn the prawns and add in the chopped scallions. Cook till prawns turn bright red or orange. Serve hot.
Rick’s Note:
The wok will get really dry and the prawns might appear burned but it’s fine as it will add that “charred” flavor to the prawns. Do not over cook the prawns! Once they change color, they are done!!!!
