Instructions
- Remove the shells from the tiger prawns or shrimp, leaving the tails intact. Lightly pound the black peppercorns using a mortar and pestle until coarsely cracked.
- You can use the flat side of your knife to press, crack, and coarsely chop the peppercorns.
- Heat a skillet or wok and add the melted butter over medium heat. Sauté the garlic and black pepper until fragrant, then add the tiger prawns or shrimp and stir to combine.
- Add the oyster sauce and stir a few times before incorporating the wine and sugar. Stir-fry until the prawns or shrimp are cooked through. Add the scallions, mix well, then dish out and serve immediately.
Notes
- For the best results, broil the black pepper shrimp in the oven for 1 minute to slightly char the surface.
