Usual stuff - no recipe just hunch

Shallot - 10 numbers
garlic - 2 cloves
chilli - to taste
ginger - 1 inch

Prawn - about a kilo

Pound all the ingredient above except for prawn ( lolz ). Prepare the prawn - snip of heads and tail, devein and deep fried for about 20 seconds in hot oil. Drain.

Sauteed pounded ingredient til fragrant. Add in some ketchup and chilli sauce. Adjust to taste. Season with crushed black pepper and a lil sea salt. Add in the prawns and tossed till coated with sauce.

We are done.
