Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Large prawns (peeled and deveined)
- 200 grams Broccoli florets
- 100 grams Carrots (sliced into thin strips)
- 1 piece Red bell pepper (sliced into strips)
- 150 grams Sugar snap peas
- 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger (minced)
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon White pepper
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water. Mix well to create the stir-fry sauce and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the prawns and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and are cooked through. Remove from the wok and set aside.
In the same wok, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add minced garlic and ginger, stir-frying for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add broccoli, carrots, red bell pepper, and sugar snap peas to the wok. Stir-fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes until they are crisp-tender.
Return the cooked prawns to the wok and pour in the prepared stir-fry sauce. Toss everything together to coat the ingredients evenly and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Season with salt and white pepper to taste. Adjust seasoning if needed.
Remove from heat and serve immediately with steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
