This is probably one of the easiest dishes to prepare. Nice as an appetizer on skewers or as a main or one of many dishes in an Asian meal.

Ingredients:

350g (about 6 oz) frozen Tiger prawns, defrosted

4-5 cloves garlic, minced (more if you like)

bunch spring onions cut into lengths of about 5-6cm (2-1/2 to 3″)

60g (1/4 cup) butter

Method:

• Devein the prawns by cutting a slit on the back (outside curve) of the prawn. Cut the slit almost to the middle of the prawn so prawn opens up nicely when cooked.
• Pat dry the prawns. Try and get it as dry as possible.
• Fry the garlic in the butter.
• Toss in the prawns when the garlic just begins to cook.
• Fry till prawns turn reddish orange in colour.
• Turn off the heat and throw in the spring onions and stir to mix.
