CHILLI GARLIC
PRAWNS
 INGREDIENTS: (Serves
6 - 8)
1 kg (2.2lbs) shelled green (raw) medium-sized prawns
3 medium onions - peeled and cut into wedges
6 cloves garlic - peeled and chopped finely
3 cups broccoli pieces
3 cups cauliflower pieces
3 medium carrots - peeled and sliced thinly, diagonally
2 small red capicums - cut into bite-sized pieces
1 medium green capsicum - cut into bite-sized pieces
1 cup cut green beans [4cm (1.5") length]
1 medium can (425gm) baby corn cuts - drained
2 cups Sweet Chili Sauce For Chicken
2 tsp chicken stock powder or 2 chicken stock cubes - optional
1 tbsp cornflour/cornstarch
1/3 cup water
2 - 3 tbsp cooking oil
Salt to taste (if not using chicken stock powder/cubes)
METHOD:
Cut each prawn along the top to de-vein, rinse if necessary, drain and set
aside.
Scald sliced carrots, green beans, broccoli and cauliflower pieces for approx.
2 mins. in boiling water, drain and set aside.
Mix cornflour with 1/3 cup water until smooth.
In a large wok, (or electric frypan or large saucepan) heat oil over high heat.
Add garlic and onion wedges and stir-fry until onions are just translucent, add
capsicums and stir-fry for a minute.
Add all the remaining prepared vegetables and sprinkle chicken stock powder (or
crumbled stock cubes), or salt, if preferred.
Continue to stir fry until well-mixed (approx 1 min.)
Add Sweet Chili Sauce For Chicken, stir-fry to mix well, then add the prawns.
Stir-fry until prawns start to become translucent.
Re-stir the cornflour and water, drizzle over the prawns and vegetables mixture
and stir-fry until the sauce is thick and glossy.
Remove from heat and serve immediately over plain steamed/boiled rice.
N.B. Do not overcook the prawns or they will lose their succulent
"crunchy" taste and become tough instead.
