Prawns with Black Bean Sauce

Prawns with Black Bean Sauce

Prawns with Black Bean Sauce. I want to share a delicious easy cooking method for prawns or large shrimps. I used large prawns for this recipe but medium to large shrimp would also do the job. For the black bean sauce I just used those bottled black bean sauce sold on most supermarket. They are convenient instead of the usual canned fermented black beans or tausi. If you don’t have access to the bottled black bean sauce the Pinoy tausi can also be used, just mash the fermented black bean then sauté it together with the garlic, ginger and onions. Cooking is fairly simple, the dish is just another version of stir-fry dish. Here is the recipe of my Prawns with Black Bean Sauce.
