I love how easy it is to cook the dish, something that can be easily accomplished within a short span of 15min after I reach home from a day of work. The prawns are juicy and delicious eaten together with the gravy; the gravy goes so well with plain rice.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I also love how this dish has both proteins and vegetables served together on the same plate. It is the perfect excuse for me not to have to cook a second or third dish. The only down factor is that prawns are expensive after all, so I probably can&#8217;t be cooking this dish too often too.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/em>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Oil: 2 tbsp<\/li>\n<li>Garlic: 1 clove, finely chopped<\/li>\n<li>Prawn: 80g, shelled &amp; deveined<\/li>\n<li>Tomato: 1, quartered<\/li>\n<li>Onion: 1 small, sliced thickly<\/li>\n<li>Tomato sauce: 1 tbsp<\/li>\n<li>Vinegar: 1\/2 tsp<\/li>\n<li>Sugar: 1 tsp<\/li>\n<li>Salt: 1\/4 tsp<\/li>\n<li>Fish sauce: 1 tsp<\/li>\n<li>Cornflour: 1 tsp<\/li>\n<li>Water: 2 tbsp<\/li>\n<li>Coriander: 1 stalk, finely chopped<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em><strong>Method<\/strong><\/em>:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Heat oil in wok.
