Prawns

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Prawns

    Rinse the prawns under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Chili Sauce

    In a bowl, mix together minced garlic, chopped fresh red chili, tomato paste, soy sauce, sugar, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well combined.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet or frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook the Prawns

    Add the prawns to the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque.

  3. 5

    Add Sauce to Prawns

    Pour the prepared chili sauce over the cooked prawns in the skillet. Stir well to coat the prawns evenly.

  4. 6

    Simmer

    Reduce the heat to medium and let the mixture simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.

Serving

  1. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the skillet from heat. Garnish the chili prawns with chopped cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side.
