CHILLI PRAWNS

Steps:

• Devein and clean the prawns well. Rinse them under running water.
• Add sugar and salt to a bowl. Pour 1 cup of water. Stir well and add the prawns to this liquid.
• Set aside for 30 mins, meanwhile proceed with other preparation.
• Drain the water completely from the prawns and add corn flour, plain flour and pepper. Mix every thing well and set aside for 10 mins. This helps the excess moisture from the prawns to be released and make the flour moist.
• Heat oil in a pan and fry the prawns on a medium heat. Gently flipping to and fro. Since they are brined the cooking time reduces to half. So they just get done under 3 mins, though it depends on the size of the prawns. The prawns swril and take a C shape when are done. Do not overcook they will turn hard and rubbery.
• By then the flour coated over the prawns turn crisp. Set these aside to a absorbent tissue.
• Clear up the pan and add more oil. Saute garlic until fragrant. Add chilies, capsicum and onion cubes or spring onions. Sprinkle very little salt and sugar.
• Saute on a high flame just for one to 2 mins until the bell peppers are half cooked yet retain their crunch.
• Add chilli sauce, chilli paste, soya sauce, vinegar and pepper. You will also need to add 2 tbsps of water.
• Mix and allow the sauces to bubble. Taste this and add more spice or sauce if you like.
• Switch off the stove and add the prawns.
• Toss well and add spring onion greens if you have in hand.
• Serve chilli prawns immediately to enjoy the crust.

PATSY'S GARLIC & CHILLI PRAWNS

Steps:

• Peel the prawns, removing the heads and leaving the tails on. Run the tip of a knife down the backs of the peeled prawns and pull out and discard the dark vein.
• Peel the garlic and finely chop with the chilli (deseed if you like). Pick and finely chop the parsley leaves.
• Drizzle the oil into a shallow heatproof terracotta dish or a small frying pan over a medium-high heat, add the garlic and chilli and fry for 30 seconds to flavour the oil, before stirring in the paprika.
• Add the prawns and fry for 2 minutes on each side, or until cooked through, adding most of the parsley when you turn the prawns.
• Squeeze half the lemon juice into the dish, then remove from the heat and sprinkle over the remaining parsley and a pinch of sea salt.
• Serve sizzling with warm crusty bread, the remaining lemon cut wedges for squeezing over, and a glass of good Spanish wine.

GARLIC CHILI SHRIMP

Steps:

• Mince 5 cloves of garlic.
• Cut 3 sticks of green onion.
• Pour ½ tablespoon of vegetable oil into a non-stick pan and turn on medium to high fire. Then, add minced garlic and stir fry for a minute.
• Next, add the washed whole raw shrimp and stir fry a little bit.
• After that, add 1 tablespoon of chili garlic sauce, ½ tablespoon of soy sauce, ½ tablespoon of brown sugar and 1 tablespoon of water and stir fry a few minutes.
• Until the shrimp cooks. It turns orange red. (Around 3-5 minutes and don't over cook them because the texture of shrimp will change.)
• When the shrimp is cooked, add the chopped green onion, mix it and ready to serve.

BUTTERY CHILLI PRAWNS

Steps:

• Melt the butter and oil together in a frying pan. Add the garlic, chilli and paprika, then fry for 1-2 mins until starting to turn golden. Turn up the heat, throw in the prawns and fry for a few mins, stirring, until all the prawns turn pink. Take off the heat, season and stir in the lemon juice and parsley.
• Add some lemon slices to a finger bowl of warm water, grab a bowl for the shells, then dig straight in with your fingers and hunks of crusty bread.

GARLIC CHILLI PRAWNS WITH SESAME NOODLES

Steps:

• Cook the noodles following pack instructions, then rinse with cold water and drain. Toss with 1 tsp of the sesame oil.
• Heat 2 tsp of the groundnut oil in a non-stick wok. Stir-fry most of the spring onions and all the beansprouts for a couple of mins until tender. Add the noodles and warm through. Stir through the remaining sesame oil and tip out of the wok onto a serving dish.
• Carefully wipe out the wok and add the remaining groundnut oil. Toss in the garlic and chilli, and cook for 10 secs. Pop in the prawns and stir-fry for a couple of mins until they have just turned pink. Stir in the sugar and soy, then bubble until the sugar has melted and prawns are cooked through. Spoon on top of the noodles and sprinkle with the remaining spring onions. Add an extra drizzle of sesame oil, if you like.

CHINESE CHILI GARLIC SHRIMP

Steps:

• Combine the shrimp and Shaoxing wine in a medium-sized bowl. Sprinkle evenly with salt. Mix until the salt is evenly dispersed. Set aside while preparing the rest of the ingredients.
• Combine all the sauce ingredients in a bowl and stir until the brown sugar is dissolved. Set aside.
• Heat 4 tablespoons of oil (or just enough to cover the bottom of the pan) in a medium-sized skillet until hot. Meanwhile, add the cornstarch and all-purpose flour to the bowl with the shrimp. Toss until the shrimp are fully coated.
• Shake the extra flour off the shrimp and add them to the pan. You might need to cook them in two batches. Let the shrimp cook without touching them, until the bottom turns golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip to brown the other side, another 2 to 3 minutes. Once done, transfer the shrimp to a large plate without overlapping and keep cooking the rest.
• Once you're done cooking the shrimp, turn off the stove and use paper towels to wipe the pan to remove any residue.
• Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of oil to the pan and heat over medium heat. Add the ginger and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add the sauce to the pan. Cook and stir until the sauce becomes thick and glossy, 20 to 30 seconds.
• Turn the heat off and return the shrimp into the pan, tossing to coat thoroughly.
• Serve hot as a main dish.

CHILI PRAWNS

Steps:

• Stir the chicken stock, ketchup, soy sauce, rice vinegar and sweet chili-garlic sauce together in a small bowl.
• Heat a wok over high heat until hot. Add the oil and swirl to coat the sides. Add the garlic, ginger, shallot and chili. Stir-fry until fragrant, about 20 seconds. Add the shrimp and stir-fry until they turn pink and curl slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour the sauce mixture into the wok and stir-fry for 1 minute. While stirring in a circular motion, slowly pour in the beaten egg. This will create egg "flowers". Turn off the heat, scoop the contents of the wok onto a platter and serve immediately.
