Chinese-Style Garlic Steamed Prawns
Ingredients
  • 20 large tiger prawns with shell
  • 2 tablespoons light soy sauce
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon brandy
Instructions
1
Rinse the prawns under cold running water, making sure to remove any impurities, and leave their shells and heads intact. Combine soy sauce, minced garlic, and brandy in a bowl to create the marinade. Arrange the prawns on a serving platter, and pour the marinade over them to coat evenly.
2
Fill a large pot or wok with water, leaving about half of the container empty. Place a steamer basket over the water and bring it to a rolling boil. Carefully place the dish containing the prawns onto the steamer basket, ensuring they are fully submerged in the steam. Cover the wok with a lid and steam the prawns for 10 minutes, or until they are opaque and cooked through.
