Preparation

1. Prepare the Prawns: Pat the prawns dry with a paper towel and set aside. 
2. Sauté the Aromatics: Heat sesame oil in a wok or large pan over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and the white parts of the spring onion. Sauté until softened and golden. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant. 
3. Add Five Spice: Sprinkle in 1 tsp of Chinese Five Spice and stir into the onions and garlic. Let the spice toast for 30 seconds to deepen the flavour. 
4. Cook the Prawns: Increase the heat to medium-high and add the prawns. Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until they begin to turn pink.
5. Finish & Serve: Drizzle with a little extra sesame oil and garnish with the green parts of the spring onions. Serve immediately with steamed jasmine rice, noodles, or stir-fried vegetables.
