Blanched king prawns
Ingredients
5 large tiger king prawns with head and shell on
1 fresh chilli
1 stalk spring onion
20g onion
2 tablespoon light soy sauce 
2 tablespoon vinegar

Blanched king prawns is one of the quickest and simplest way to cook prawns. Tiger prawns are the ideal type to cook this dish. The prawns should have head and shell on and be of large size; preferably 16/20 or bigger. The dish is cooked by boiling the prawns in water for couple of minutes. The cooked prawns are eaten with a dip made of soy sauce and vinegar. 
Since the prawns are cooked without any condiments, the quality of this dish depends on the sauce. Onion, spring onion and chilli are used to make the sauce. They are first stir fry in medium heat with some vegetable oil to bring out its flavour before adding light soy sauce and vinegar. The ratio of soy sauce and vinegar is 1:1. Therefore for my video I used roughly one tablespoon each of soy sauce and vinegar.
