STIR FRY PROCESS

1. Let's start with the prawns that have been shelled and de-veined. Marinade the prawn with Salt (1 tsp), White Pepper ( 1 tsp) and Corn Starch (1 tbsp). Mix well, then add 1 tbsp of Sesame Oil to lock in the flavor and keep the prawns moist.

2. Then prepare the broccoli by putting 2 ltr of water in a pot or a pan and bring it to a boil Add broccoli into the boiling water and remove after 1-2 minutes Add broccoli straight into cold or iced water to keep them green and crisp

3. Now we can start the cooking process by adding 3 tbsp of cooking oil to a wok or a pan. Add Garlic to the wok and fry for about 2 minutes or until golden brown. Remember to keep stirring.

4. Once they turn golden, remove 3/4 of the garlic and put them onto paper towel to drain the oil and let dry. This makes these garlic chips crispy! (We will use them later)

5. Add prawns into the wok and sauté for 2 minutes (50% cooked)

6. Add carrots to the wok and stir for 30 seconds

7. Add broccoli and continue to sauté for 1 minute

8. Then add the sauce and mix everything well for about 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens

9. Add 1 tsp of white pepper, mix well and take it off the stove.

10. Sprinkle the crispy garlic chips and enjoy!
