METHOD

Prawn Mixture

  1. Place the peeled prawns into a perforated steam tray in a single layer. Steam for 2 minutes at 85°C. Set aside in the refrigerator. When cool, slice.
  2. Combine remaining ingredients except the betel leaves. Set aside until ready to use.

Paste

  1. Place galgangal in a pestle and mortar and grind to a paste.
  2. Gradually add the remaining ingredients, one by one, and pound to a paste. Set aside.

Sauce

  1. Heat sugar and water on medium heat, Induction setting 6, until dissolved. Continue to cook for a further 5 minutes.
  2. Add fish sauce, then stir in the paste. Continue to cook for a further 5 minutes.
  3. Add tamarind water, continue to cook for a few minutes but do not reduce too much or the dressing will harden.
  4. Remove from the heat.
  5. When cooled slightly, check the seasoning: it should taste sweet, sour and salty.

To Serve
