Instructions

1. Marinate the prawns (deshelled, deveined, 250 g) with ½ tsp salt, a few dashes of white pepper, the egg white and 3 tbsp cornflour until coated.
2. Dust the prawns lightly with more cornflour.
3. Heat about 2 tbsp oil in a wok and fry the prawns until perfectly crisp, then drain them.
4. Make ginger-infused oil: in the same oil, fry the julienned young ginger until fragrant, then remove the ginger and keep the oil in the wok.
5. Add the chopped garlic to the ginger oil and stir-fry briefly.
6. Add 125 ml water, 1 tbsp light soy sauce, 1 tbsp oyster sauce, 1 tbsp premium dark soy sauce and 1½ tsp sugar, and bring to a simmer.
7. Stir in enough cornstarch solution to thicken the sauce.
8. Return the prawns to the wok and toss to coat with the sauce.
9. Serve garnished with chopped spring onions and roasted sesame seeds.
