Hi guys. How are
you? I hope you guys have an amazing day. Today, I would like to share my simple prawn
sambal recipe. It is my favorite weekend recipe because it takes time
to prepare the sambal. Sambal prawn is somehow a popular dish in
Malaysia. It is a combination of a sweet and spicy dish. You can have sambal prawn
as a standalone dish or accompany with any side dishes. I love cucumber and fried
fish as an accompaniment. So how to cook sambal prawn? Let’s check it out!
INGREDIENTS
1 small bowl of
prawns
1 Tbsps. sugar
1 Tbsps. tamarind
paste, soaked with water (strain and discard pulps)
½ tsps. salt
1 Hollands onion
– cut into slices
Vietnamese
coriander
Chili Paste (Blend into fine paste)
15 dried red
chillies, soaked in boiling water to soften
3 shallots
½ inch shrimp
paste/ belacan
4 Tbsp oil
METHODS:
Heat oil on
medium high heat, add in the chili paste and cook until oil separates.
Add in tamarind
juice and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil and reduce to low heat and let it
simmer for approx. 30 - 45 minutes. Stir frequently and add another cup of
water to avoid the bottom burnt. Cook until the chili changes to dark colour.
Add in sugar and
salt to taste and then mix in the prawns. Add Holland onion. Stir.
Cook until the
prawns change to orange about 5-10 minutes.
Add Vietnamese
coriander. Stir and done.
