One evening, I was planning to cook ribs soup, when I heard my boyfriend saying he was defrosting some prawns. We had to cook it fast, because we suspected that the shop didn't sell fresh prawns, as it gone bad in a short period of time. So, before we wasted any food, I turned this prawns into Prawns Swim in Tomato Sauce. Happy cooking !! (Photos are coming)
Ingredients:
- 350gr prawn (shell in-tact or no shell)
- 2 red chillies/paprika (unseeded)
- 1/2 onion (chopped)
- 4 cloves garlic (finely chopped)
- 2 roma tomatoes (roughly sliced)
- 1tbs corn flour
- 2tbs water
Sauce:
- 125ml water
- 2tbs ketchup/tomato sauce
- 2tbs fish sauce
- 1tsp sugar
- 1/2tbs sweet soy sauce
- 1tbs shaoxing chinese cooking wine
- salt to taste
Method:
- Combine the sauce in a small bowl. Set aside
- In a wok, stir fry the onion until fragrant, add in garlic and red chillies
- Add in prawn, cook until the colour changed, then add in the tomatoes. Stir well
- Pour the sauce in the wok, and let the prawns absorb the taste from the sauce. Adjust the taste
- To thicken the sauce, combine the corn flour and water in a small container, and add in the wok bit by bit while you stir the prawns
- Serve it hot
Try having the sauce on top of your rice, it will send you to a different dimension on how to enjoy your rice to the max
