Prawn Aglio Olio on a hot sat afternoon

accomplished another pasta mania mission today. we decided to cook aglio olio with prawns and add some chilli padi for some spiciness. The result was a simple, oishii homecooked aglio olio. yummy.

As usual, ES was in charge of cooking the pasta.. he's getting quite good at it. gave him another task today which was to pan fry the prawns.

Aglio Olio Recipe wa kantan ne:

For 2 pax:

1) Pan fry 3 small pieces of garlic in olive oil (about half a cup or as u prefer depending if you like it wet or dry) till fragrant. Watch the fire. Do not over fry if not the garlic will taste bitter.

2) Add in a bit of corn starch so that the oil doesn't splatter.

3) Add a bit of coarse black pepper, salt, some chilli padi, shreds of crab stick to taste.

4) Lightly fry the pasta in the garlic olive oil mixture. Dish out when ready!

Prawns:

1) deshell and marinate the prawns in salt, pepper, cornstarch. Do not add soya sauce. Our prawns tasted very chinese style coz my mama san came along and added in light soya sauce lor. And also, use olive oil to fry the prawns so that it doesn't taste too chinese. Why am I complaining, it still tasted great. heh.

I can only manage simple cooking. I hate the washing up after that. If I had a maid, I would try out different dishes as and when I like minus the washing! ya...but then again, if i had a maid, I would be too lazy to cook even. so.

couched on the sofa and we caught 5 episodes of HK drama with bubble milk tea after that... so..that explains for the need to go for a jog later. when the sun sets that is, weather is scorching.
