Indulge in sesame-coated sticky prawns with bok choy using chopsticks.
Ingredients:
  • 24.40 gm fish sauce
  • 28.60 gm honey
  • 40.00 ml kecap manis (Indonesian sweet soy)
  • 1 tsp finely grated fresh ginger
  • 1 lime, rind finely grated, juiced
  • 20 medium green prawns, peeled, deveined, leaving tails intact
  • 1 large bunch bok choy, halved lengthways, washed
  • 6.00 gm sesame seeds
  • 18.20 gm peanut oil
Instructions:
  • In a glass bowl, mix the fish sauce, honey, kecap manis, ginger, lime zest, and lime juice. Add the prawns and toss to coat evenly. Let it marinate for 20 minutes.
  • Prepare the bok choy by separating the leaves from the stems and cutting the stems in half lengthwise. Heat a wok or large deep frying pan over medium-high heat, then toast the sesame seeds until golden, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  • In a hot skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of oil until shimmering. Add the stems and stir-fry for 4 minutes. Toss in the leaves and continue to stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until tender. Transfer to a platter and cover with foil.
  • Take the prawns out of the marinade. Heat the remaining oil in the wok over high heat. Cook the prawns for 2 minutes on each side until golden. Pour in the marinade and cook for 1-2 minutes until slightly reduced. Serve the prawns and sauce over the bok choy, garnish with sesame seeds.
