STIR-FRIED PRAWNS - HONG KONG STYLE
From the *Carnival Creations* cookbook by Cyrus Marfatia (Exec Chef of Carnival Cruise Lines) comes this recipe described in the intro as a "Stir-fry favorite that requires just a bit of chopping plus quick wok cooking to provide a complete meal". (Time was estimated & does not include the 20 min to marinate the prawns. The wok cooking time is very fast & I allowed 20 min for ingredient prep) *Enjoy* !
