Dry Butter Prawns by Yee SuJuen

Ingredients:
Prawns (must not be wet, or else when fried the water from the prawn will come out)
Beaten egg yolks with salt & sugar (I use 3 to 4 eggs, I use the whites as well, but only yolks nicer coz it will become 'wire' shape, if use whole egg it will becomes flakes shown in pic)
Curry leaves
Salt
Sugar
Butter / ghee (I use coz ghee healthier)
Shallot onion
Garlic
Optional: bird eye chilli

Method:
1. Marinate prawns with sugar for 10 mins (with sugar it's crispier)
2. Pour oil into wok. Wait until it's real hot. Add in ghee. 
3. Put prawns in. Take it out just after the popping sound stops (maybe 30 secs). If prawns is too much do batch by batch. 
4. Do not off the fire. Add in ghee. Pour in the eggs by putting the bowl high and slowly pour the eggs, when the eggs reach wok start stirring non stop. Cooks until brown.
5. By using a ladle with holes, take out the eggs, the normal ladle on the other hand push the oil out. Then leave a side. 
6. Cook garlic, shallot, curry leaves and bird eyes chilli. When it's brown add in prawns and eggs.
