Instructions

MAKE CRISPY FRIED GARLIC

  1. Peel and chop garlic.
  2. Heat neutral oil in a wok until hot.
  3. Add garlic, stir until golden.
  4. Remove and drain on paper towels.

COOK THE PRAWNS

  1. 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.
  2. Scoop them up with a colander and let any extra oil drip off.

MAKE THE SAUCE.

  1. Remove most of the oil from the pan, leaving just a bit behind. That's what we'll need for making the sauce.
  2. In the remaining oil, add crushed garlic. Sauté until golden, about 20 seconds.
  3. 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

  1. Serve garlic prawns with rice. Top them with crispy fried garlic and black pepper, then drizzle with sauce.
