BUTTER PRAWN RECIPE




A popular menu in any Chinese Restuarant. I love this crunchy a bit hot with some bird's eyes chili and curry leave. A good combination with any meals.


Butter Prawn - Heavily adapted fromrasamalaysia.com



Ingredients:


1 kg  large prawns
Oil for deep frying
3 tablespoons butter
6 bird’s eye chilies (chopped)
3 sprigs of curry leaves (use only the leaves)
3 cloves garlic (finely chopped)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
6 tablespoons of grated coconut (dry fried until golden brown)
Leave the prawn heads and shells on but chop off the eyes part. Slit down the back to remove the veins. Pat dry. Heat oil and deep fry the prawns. Drain and set aside.
Melt the butter, add bird’s eye chilies, curry leaves, garlic, salt and fry for 2 minutes or until fragrant. Add prawns, sugar, soy sauce and grated coconut. Cook over high heat for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently. Serve immediately.
