Prawns in Oats

This is very challenging...bcos if the curry leaves don't have a strong aroma, it would eventually spoil the dish. Unfortunately, the curry leaves I planted don't give a strong aroma... it has a little, but not good enough to bring out the specialty of this dish...taste a little like "lai yau"(buttered milk)

But it's worth the try... especially the oats, once fried, wow!!! it's crunchy and taste real good!!

Ingredients:

Prawns/Squids/Anything that is shelled
Curry leaves
Oats (depending on how much squids/prawns you have, the more the merrier)
Butter
Sugar
Salt
A little milk
Chilli padi (chopped)

Method:

Coat prawns with corn flour and deep fry. You can also pan fry them, depending on "how healthy" you want it to be. Dish out.
Saute curry leaves and chilli padi with butter till fragrant. (Tips is pour a little oil before putting in the butter, so that butter doesn't burn).
Add in oats and around 2 tbsp milk, fry and fry and fry till crispy.
Then pour in the prawns, mix them up nicely. Stir fry them for a few minutes, let the fragrant of the curry leaves and oats wrap into prawns.

Dish out...and serve with puffy hot rice!!!
