Pan fried Butter Prawns

I still remember whenever my family and i step into The Nyonya Restaurant in Kuala Kangsar , it is a must for us order the butter prawns dish as the whole family love seafood so much.Even the sweetness of the prawns blending with the slight tinge of saltiness from the soy sauce and the spiciness of the chillies makes this dish ever so appetizing till my dad often get his 'nasi tambah'.

I love how the light taste of butter mixed with the fresh prawns plus the chillies in there, a little bit spicy but sweet just makes me wanna say Mammamia..!! The toasted desiccated coconut certainly enhances the taste besides adding a fantastic aroma to the dish. This time, i got the recipe from the Nyonya Cooking .Enjoy :)

• 12 prawns
• 25 g butter
• 35 g coconut (dessicated or grated)
• 1 tsp soy sauce
• 1 tsp sugar
• 0.5 tsp salt
• 2 garlic cloves
• 1 shallots
• 3 bird-eye chillies
• 4 curry leaf stalks
• corn starch

1. Lightly toast desiccated coconut until light brown. Remove from pan.
2. Coat prawns with corn flour. Fry prawns and remove from pan.
3. In a clean pan, melt butter at low heat.
4. Add curry leaves, garlic and bird eye chillies.
5. Season with some salt and sugar. Stir fry the ingredients until curry leaves curl.(I can't find any curry leaf in Japan so I skipped it)
6. Add fried prawns, desiccated coconut and soy sauce.
7. Mix well and serve.
