Ebi Chilli Sauce

Introduction

Ebi Chilli Sauce is one of my husbands favourite meals, it is a very easy dish to prepare and cook. The recipe is very flexible and could be made with any combination of seafood, meat or vegetables. I usually prepare the dish with Ebi / Prawns, but chicken would work just as well. You may also like to add some carrots to add some bite (gentle pan fry).

Ingredients

• 10 King Prawns
• A Pinch of Salt and Pepper
• 1 tbs of Corn Flour
• 1 Finely Chopped Clove of Garlic
• Chopped Ginger roughly the same size as the Garlic Clove
• 1 tbs of Tobian Jian (see ingredients page for more details)
• 1 Finely Chopped Spring Onion
• 1 tbs of Sesame Oil
• Chicken Stock 80cc
• 2 tbs of Tomato Ketchup
• 2 tbs of Granulated Sugar
• 2 tsp of Japanese Soy Sauce / Light Soy Sauce
• 2 tsp of Oyster Sauce

Method

1. Mix the Chicken Stock, Tomato Ketchup, Sugar, Soy Sauce and Oyster Sauce and leave.
2. Remove the Prawn shells, and score the back removing the black / translucent vein, wash, season with salt and pepper and coat with the corn flour.
3. Heat a wok or frying pan at a medium heat, add the garlic, ginger, tobian jian and prawns cooking until the prawns turn pink.
4. Add the sauce to the pan, simmer for 5 minutes, or until the sauce thickens.
5. If you like, add some white vinegar to taste.
6. Serve with Japanese Rice, or Egg Fried Rice. Enjoy!
