Pepper and garlic. Simple yet effective. The prawns have a superb savoury flavour which cuts through the tamarind dressing and fresh crunch of the salad.

Ingredients

Raw peeled prawns

600 g, peeled, tails intact

Pepper

2 tsp

Garlic

2 clove(s), crushed

Lime juice

4 tbs

Lebanese cucumber

2 medium, cut into ribbons

Fresh coriander

1 cup(s)

Red capsicum

1 medium, cut into thin strips

Bean sprouts

100 g

Tamarind puree

2 tbs

Brown sugar

1 tbs

Fish sauce

2 tsp

Oil spray

1 x 3 second spray(s)

Instructions

  1. Lightly spray a wok with oil and heat over high heat. Stir-fry prawns, in batches, for 2–3 minutes or until just starting to change colour. Transfer to a plate.
