Great recipe! I make shrimp stock with the shells for cooking the jasmine rice. I also use Toban Djan instead of Black Bean Paste

    The flavor was really nice. Not as spicy as I thought it was going to be. Hubby tought it needed some veggies, so I will add them next time. Thanks for the recipe.

    Mmmm these were wonderful! Because I was cooking for myself I used the full amount of sauce with half the prawns, but then when returning the prawns to the wok also included some bok choy and chinese noodles (which I'd cooked) and it all went wonderfully with the sauce.
