Another seafood dish into my collection, this is one of my all time favorite prawn dishes, the Butter Oat Prawn (麥片蝦). In Malaysia, when my family dine out, sometimes Butter Oat Prawn will be one of the usual prawn dishes we order. If you haven’t heard of or tried this dish before, you might think this is so weird to cook the prawns or shrimps with cereal oats? No, of course. Let me introduce you to this delicious dish.

The specialty about the Butter Oat Prawn is to deep fry the egg yolk until golden and crispy, then stir fry with cereal or oats and add in other ingredients such as curry leafs, chili, butter and creamer.  The whole complete mixture has a distinct taste of saltiness, sweetness and a bit of spiciness with a hint of curry leaves and chili. Toss in the prawns and mix in with the oat mixture, the golden color makes it real nice and you will be surprised that you are about to enjoy a delicious and special dish.

I don’t eat a lot of shrimps not because I don’t like them; in fact, I love them but I’m just lazy to peel the shells.  So I always have my boyfriend to peel the shells for me. However I couldn’t resist the “Butter Fried Shrimp with Spiced Salt”. The shrimp is pan fried with spiced salt and coated with crispy garlic and scallions in fragrant buttery sauce. I will certainly suck up all the sauce on the shell before discarding it or even eat the whole shrimp with shell on.  Sound gross but that is how you eat some finger lickin’ good food.
