Unfortunately, even though Denmark is literally surrounded by sea (which translate to lots of seafood to me) but the seafood available here are not what I'm used to. Fishes are different, not much (to be exact, none) squid/crabs spotted so far, not to mentioned they are usually frozen. One really need to sniff their way around to local fish stall to find limited selection of fresh seafood & please don't expect it to be cheap when it's fresh :)
So, lowering my expectation (again) when I crave for something other than meat & poultry, I go for frozen tiger prawns. How to prepare it?? Did the coated with breadcrumb thing before, don't want to repeat. Hmm...got me cracking my head for quite some time until I get inspired by my mom's chili paste (again).
Minced a clove of garlic, stir fried it with a tablespoon of oil & add in a tablespoon of CH's mom's chili paste. Fried until chili fragrant can be smelled, trust me, it's innegligible ;) & add in the prawns. When prawns are almost cooked (slightly orangy/reddish), add in 1 tablespoon of sweet thai chili sauce (the type with garlic) & 1 tablespoon of water. Continue stir fried until prawn cooked & serve with white rice. I'm telling you, it's finger licking good!
I like onion so I usually add in ½ small onion to the recipe. Just sliced the onion & stir fried it together with the garlic. When it turn slightly soft, add in chili paste. Don't want to mention it above because the prawn will still taste nice without the onion. It's an optional but recommended (why? because I like it) :p
Ok...I think I've mentioned more than a couple of times about my mom's chili paste. I will ask her the recipe (when I go home) and publish them for 'public sharing'...how nice of me to share my mom's love :p
For the time being, I hope you can at least enjoy the picture ;)
