Last week, I did a simple dish of sambal anchovies with prawns. If you like spicy food, you can check this out and give it a try.

What you need:

  • 60-80 gms of anchovies
  • 3-4 tablespoons of sambal
  • 200 gms of prawns
  • 1/4 bowl of water (small bowl)
  • 1 pinch of salt

Method of preparation:

First of all, soak the anchovies in some water to clean them. Next, once that is done, oil your wok / frying pan. Once the oil starts to heat up, put in the anchovies and deep fry the anchovies. Continue to stir fry the anchovies till the color turns golden brown. After that, lift the fried anchovies up from the wok / frying pan.

Next, put in the sambal and stir fry it over a medium flame. Continue to stir fry the sambal till you can smell the fragrance coming out from them. At this point, put in the prawns and stir fry the sambal / prawns until the both items are evenly mixed. After, add in the water and stir fry the mixture till it boils.

Lastly, put in the fried anchovies into the mixtures and add in the pinch of salt to taste. Stir fry the mixture to have them mixed well. Once they are properly mixed, lift them up from the wok / frying pan and serve. This step need to be done in the shortest time possible to ensure the crispiness of the anchovies.
