Instructions
MAKE CRISPY FRIED GARLIC
- Peel and chop garlic.
- Heat neutral oil in a wok until hot.
- Add garlic, stir until golden.
- Remove and drain on paper towels.
COOK THE PRAWNS
- In the same garlic-infused oil, fry the prawns skin-on. Cook until cooked through, about 2 minutes each side, depending on the size of your prawns.
- Scoop them up with a colander and let any extra oil drip off.
MAKE THE SAUCE.
- Remove most of the oil from the pan, leaving just a bit behind. That's what we'll need for making the sauce.
- In the remaining oil, add crushed garlic. Sauté until golden, about 20 seconds.
- Add light soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, and natural cooking cream. Cook the sauce, constantly stirring, until mixed well and sugar dissolves. You'll end up with a thick sauce when it's ready. If you prefer a thin sauce, add 2 tablespoons of water.
SERVE
- Serve garlic prawns with rice. Top them with crispy fried garlic and black pepper, then drizzle with sauce.
Notes
