Garlic Prawns
Simple, delicious garlic prawns - over noodles. Recipe is from Arun's restaurant in Chicago. Do not substitute oyster sauce for the fish sauce, they are not interchangeable. If you need to substitute the fish sauce, use either Worcestershire sauce or soy sauce. 1/4 cup vegetable oil 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 lb prawns or shrimp, peeled with tails left on and deveined 2 tablespoons fish sauce (nam pla) 1/2 teaspoon minced cilantro 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper 1/4 teaspoon white pepper 4 servings 20 minutes 10 mins prep 1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add garlic, cook and stir until garlic is translucent, 2-3 minutes. 2. Stir in shrimp, fish sauce, cilantro, black pepper and white pepper; cook over medium heat, stirring often, until shrimp is opaque, about 3 minutes.

Careful, now. Garlic is a featured ingredient, here. The more you cook
it, the wimpier it gets. Timing is everything. I cook similar dishes and I have the best success when the shrimp is done just when the garlic is "peaking", so to speak. I love that zing! -Bruce Gal Called J.J. wrote: > One time on Usenet, Glenn Jacobs > said: > >>On Mon, 18 Oct 2004 15:31:41 GMT, Gal Called J.J. wrote: > > > <snip> > >>>In large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 1 T. butter.

The basic approach to garlic prawns (scampi, whatever) is to heat some cooking oil (I prefer butter) and toss in a bunch of garlic for a couple seconds to infuse the oil, then add shrimp to start the cooking process, then add herb/spice whatever, then add an acid like wine, lemon, etc and reduce. Accompany with wine and bread and thank whatever deity you believe in for allowing you to experience such ecstasy before you leave this life. nb |
