These are amazing!!!!! Pick up some prawns and make them tonight.

Pan-fried King Prawns (daeha jjiim) – serves 2 as a starter

• 1 garlic clove, crushed
• ½ cm piece of ginger, peeled and finely grated
• 2 tsp soy sauce
• 2 tsp roasted sesame seed oil
• 1 tsp honey
• 1 tsp vegetable oil
• 150g king prawns, shelled
• 1 spring onion, thinly sliced
• 2 tsp roasted pine nuts, roughly chopped

Combine the garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame seed oil and honey together to make a sauce.

Heat the vegetable oil in a pan over a high heat. When it’s very hot, add the prawns and cook for a minute, then turn them over. Add the sauce and cook for another minute until cooked through.

Serve immediately with the spring onion and pine nuts sprinkled over the top.
