#BorgesRecipes

Ingredients:
  • 12 pieces fresh big-size sea prawns 
  • 4 tbsp minced garlic
  • 1 1/2 tbsp minced ginger  
  • 2 tbsp chopped spring onion
  • 1 chili padi, chopped 
  • 2 tbsp Borges extra light olive oil 
  • 1/2 cup hot chicken stock/ hot water 
  • 1/2 tbsp oyster sauce 
  • A dash of cooking wine 
Method: 
  1. Clean prawns by trimming away the legs and sharp edges. Use a toothpick to remove the intestines. Wash and drain. 
  2. Heat pan/ wok with olive oil at middle-high heat. Add 2 1/2 tbsp of minced garlic and minced ginger. Stirfry till fragrant (about a minute).  Add 1 tbsp of chopped spring onion and mix well. 
  3. Add prawns and stir fry quickly to mix well for about a minute. Add hot chicken stock / hot water, then cover with lid for about a minute. 
  4. Remove cover and add remaining minced garlic, chili padi and oyster sauce. Adjust taste accordingly and add a little salt if needed. (If you use store-bought chicken stock, do not add oyster sauce or salt as it already contain salt.) 
  5. Add remaining spring onion. Off heat, garnish with coriander and served hot. 
Tip:
  • Prawns cooked very fast so have to be fast in cooking! I used about 7 minutes plus for this dish. Try not too overcook the prawns as it’ll becomes tough. 
  • Add more chopped chili padi if you prefer it to be more spicy.
