DiSH 210 : SAMBAL PRAWNS


 SAMBAL PRAWNS


This is a kindergarten dish. 

Very simple to prepare. 

So simple that my college-going daughter 

is cooking dinner this evening. :D



1. Prawns are ozonized and de-veined.

 2. Saute garlic in olive oil until fragrant.

 Toss in the prawns.


Fry Fry Fry.


Add carrots and button mushrooms. 

Add one bird's eye chilli (cili padi) (roughly sliced).

Squeeze lemon juice over.



We're scooping a portion out of the pan at this point, for Bryan. He wanted to go on a no-salt diet that day. His blood pressure reading was way over the borderline when he checked in the morning. 

I gave him a handful of Viva's vitamins to take as well as his green shake. He took quaker oats for brunch and 2 green shakes during the day, only this time, he added banana to the first shake, and an apple to the second.

I was so surprised to see that by midnight, his reading had dropped and returned to normal.


Bryan's NO SALT dinner.



Bryan says he can now taste the flavor of the ingredients. He claims that his simple dinner tasted really good. He remarks that he has in fact forgotten how good wholesome foods can taste like. The prawns were especially fresh ... maybe because it was ozonized, according to him.


 3. Add chilli paste.


Justine adds 2 table spoons of homemade 
blended chilli paste that we made 
and kept from the previous day.


We are not adding seasalt here as the chilli paste 
is already mildly salted.


Since my daughter is cooking, I couldn't add any greens to the dish. I would have liked to add some chopped coriander leaves over the prawns but Justine was quick to yell out, "Eeeee Noooo!" Yeah, even the tomatoes I had cut into segments for her to toss in, she deliberately left them out. :D



See DiSH 181 : Chilli-Stuffed Selar Fish for the chilli paste.



 Bon Appetite!!! :D



Hmmm ... finger licking delicious ...




Don't forget the green green glass of super nutrition!
