Honey prawns over rice, beef bulgogi over chips with a creamy pepper sauce

 

This is a unique recipe I've come up with and I love it!

You will need cooked rice and hot chips to serve

 

Honey prawns

 

12 prawns peeled and devained tail on

1/2 cup or so of honey warmed in the microwave

Sesame seeds to garnish

Fresh chopped spring onion

Batter

1/2 cup plain flour

1/2 cup cornflour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 tablespoon sugar

1 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup soda water plus a couple tablespoons extra if needed

 

Mix all the batter ingredients together in a bowl, you want a thickish batter but so it's not stoggy and still runs off the spoon, so add more soda water if you think its too thick.

​

Heat up a deep fryer to 180 Degrees Celsius.

Dip the prawns into the batter holding the tail then lower gently into the hot oil and hold for a few seconds so the batter will quickly set and not stick to the fryer basket, fry for 2 minutes a batch.

Do this In batches as to not overcrowd the pan. Once you have done this now add all the prawns back in and fry in one batch for 1-2 minutes until crunchy, drain on paper towel and immediately transfer to a bowl, pour over the warmed honey and still carefully to coat prawns.

Sprinkle with sesame seeds and garnish with fresh chopped spring onion to serve

 

Bulgogi beef with creamy pepper sauce

 

500g beef rump steak cubed

Bulgogi marinade

6 tablespoons soy sauce

2 tablespoons sugar

2 tablespoons mirim

2 tablespoons sesame oil

1 teaspoon garlic salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

 

Mix all marinade ingredients together add the beef and allow to marinade overnight or 30 minutes minimum.

Remove the beef from the marinade and pan fry for 5 minutes or so on a medium heat until beef is cooked, remove beef from the pan and set aside, quickly add the leftover marinade and simmer until the sauce thickens and and changes to a darker color then pour over the beef

 

Quick creamy pepper sauce

 

1 cup sour cream

1 beef oxo stock cube crumbled

1 tablespoon freshly cracked black pepper

1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper

Salt to taste

​
