Golden Prawns

To Y who dubbed this as his no.1 favourite dish

The person who invented this dish is a genius - there is no higher cholesterol food than this (LOL!) But yet, the tastiness of this far surpasses any fear for the cholesterol level, and let's be frank, we are not having this every week or even every month, so I don't think it's gonna harm our health as such.

Ingredients:

1. 4 very big king prawns
2. 3 salted duck egg yolks
3. 1 tablespoon xiaoshing wine
4. 1 teaspoon salt plus more for washing the prawns
5. 2 + 2 tablespoons oil
6. Chopped coriander/spring onion, to garnish

Method:

• Separate 3 salted duck eggs into whites and yolks. Place the yolks on a shallow dish and steam for about 15 minutes or until fully cooked. Mash the yolks with a fork and leave to cool. The whites can be used in other dishes or add to Chinese soups to enhance flavour.
• Devein and trim the prawns while keeping the shells intact. Put the prawns under running tap while take some salt in your hand to 'wash' the prawns. Drain and put in a dish. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of salt to marinate the prawns for 10 minutes.
• In a hot wok/frying pan, use 2 tablespoons of oil to fry the prawns until they are 80% cooked. Take out the prawns and clean the wok/frying pan.
• Again, heat up the wok/frying pan and put in 2 tablespoons of oil. Add in the mashed yolks and use a spatula to stir diligently. When the mashed yolks are foaming, add in the prawns and stir for about 1 minute. Then, add wine (pour it around the rim of the wok/frying pan) and stir for another 1 minute. Plate up and garnish with coriander/spring onion.
