The Good Bit
- Mix the prawns with a pinch of salt, egg white and cornflour paste then stir fry in a hot wok with all the oil for 40 seconds only then remove and place on a paper towel.
- Drain off most of the oil, leaving just a splash then add the spring onion and ginger for a few seconds then add the pepper and fry for 1 minute, next add the remaining salt, the sugar and the prawns and cook for a further minute before finally adding the soy sauce and sherry and a sprinkle of sesame oil then serving.
