Directions

  1. To prepare the pancakes, place the flour into a mixing bowl, gradually add in the beaten egg and lowfat milk. Beat the batter till smooth. Allow the batter to stand for 30 min.
  2. To prepare the chilli tomato sauce, heat 1 Tbsp. of oil in a frying pan over a moderate heat, add in the garlic, chilli and ginger and fry for 1 minute before adding the minced tomatoes, roughly minced coriander. Add in seasoning to taste. Reduce the heat and simmer for a further 5 min whilst making the pancakes.
  3. Heat 1 tsp. of oil in a frying pan and pour in sufficient batter to cover the base of the pan. The batter should run easily over the base of the pan in order to achieve a thin light pancake. Cook the pancake for about 1 minute on each side.
  4. Wipe the frying pan with a piece of absorbent kitchen paper before making the next pancake. Re-oil the frying pan and continue making pancakes till all the batter has been used.
  5. Keep the pancakes hot by stacking them on top of each other and covering with kitchen foil.
  6. Wipe the frying pan, place the remaining oil in the frying pan and place it over a moderate heat. When the oil is warm add in the prawns and fry for 1 minute on each side. Re-heat the sauce.
  7. Serve the prawns on a ruched pancake with a little of the sauce spooned over the top.
  8. Notes Serve with steamed vegetables eg pak choi, sugar snaps or possibly choy sum.
  9. NOTES : A fusion of European and Oriental styles suitable for a light supper or possibly first course dinner party dish.
