In a small bowl, add the soy sauce, Mirin and brown sugar and mix thoroughly.
½ tbsp Mirin, ½ tbsp dark soy sauce, 1 tsp brown sugar
When mixed put to one side for now.
Add the vegetable oil to a frying pan or wok over a medium high heat.
½ tsp vegetable oil
Add the garlic and sauté/fry until it starts to discolour (turns brown)
1 clove garlic
Add the tiger prawns to the pan.
12 large tiger prawns
Add the soy sauce, mirin and sugar mixture to the pan as well.
Stir for 30 seconds to 1 minute to mix everything.
Fry the tiger prawns for 3-4 minutes on each side.
When one side is cooked, add the water and turn each prawn over so the other side cooks.
2 tbsp water
Once cooked, place on a warmed dish with a lovely dip.
I like a good pinch of ground black pepper over the prawns at this stage.
Finely slice your green onions/scallions and sprinkle over.
2 large green onions
Serve warm for best effect.
