Fish Be With You: Tomato Prawns

 Garlic Tomato Prawns with Breaded Tofu

Ingredients:

Chinese tofu
2 tbsp parmesan cheese (grated)
1/4 cup panko bread crumbs
2 tbsp flour
Salt and Pepper
500g prawns (peeled and deveined)
2 tbsp canola oil
Juice of 1 lemon
3 tbsp oyster sauce
1/2 tsp sriracha
2 tbsp garlic (minced)
1 medium tomato (diced)


Directions:

1. Slice the tofu into 1 inch cubes.  Set aside.

2. Combine the cheese, bread crumbs and flour in a bag.  Season with salt and pepper.

3. Shake lightly until the tofu pieces are covered with the batter.

4. I baked the breaded tofu for about 20 minutes but it did not turn out the way I wanted.
The batter became cakey.  I suggest frying the tofu instead for a crunchier texture.

5. Marinate the prawns in salt, pepper and lemon juice for about 10-15 minutes in the fridge.

6. Sauté the garlic until golden brown.

7. Add the prawns.

8. Cook for about a minute.

9. Add the tomatoes.

10. Add the oyster sauce and sriracha.  Season with salt and pepper.

11. Cook for about 3-4 more minutes.

12. Serve with the tofu (hopefully you have better luck than I did).  Plate and Enjoy! :)

13. I wasn't happy with how the tofu texture turned out so I decided to make a prawn burger instead :)
