Chinese Version of Scrambled Eggs and Prawns
Have you ever had Chinese scrambled eggs? They’re absolutely different and delectable! They’re cooked in a unique way that makes them melt in your mouth and have the smoothest of textures! Throw in there some mild prawns and you’ve got a nutritious breakfast meal that’s calm and goes down easily for an easy morning.
Peel and devein four ounces of prawns. Slice one green onion. Make a marinade of half a teaspoon of Shaoxing wine, a fourth teaspoon of salt, an eight teaspoon of white pepper, and half a teaspoon of cornstarch. Mix the marinade until uniform then let the prawns sit in it for six minutes.
Crack four eggs and scramble with an eighth teaspoon of salt. Heat cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Throw in the prawns and let cook for half a minute – don’t stir or turn them over. When the prawn bottoms turn white, flip them over. Cook until just before they turn pink. Remove the pan from the heat source and introduce the scrambled eggs, letting the eggs set around the edges. Gently push the eggs to the side and introduce more of the eggs, repeating until all of the eggs are in the pan.
Turn down the heat to low and put the pan back over it. Continue to push the eggs gently to the side and repeating as it sets. Once the eggs are cooked to creamy or your desired doneness, place everything on a serving plate.
Season with green onions and enjoy!
