Last Tuesday, my day off, I went on a cooking spree. I cooked four dishes namely Bikol Express, Ginataang Gabi (taro leaves cooked in coconut milk), Chow Mein, and Prawns in Spicy Chili Sauce.

Though I am only going to show one dish and that is Prawns in Spicy Chili Sauce. The only thing I did differently to the recipe was I dipped the shrimps in an egg wash and rolled them on the flour before deep frying.

To make an egg wash, I put 1/2 cup of milk in a bowl. To it, I cracked open one egg, and whisked it into the milk.

As per Elyani’s instructions, I only deep fried the shrimps for about a minute on high heat.

And 45 minutes later, here’s what I came up with: Delicious Prawns in Spicy Chili Sauce.

Do you know that I haven’t cooked since last Tuesday because I am still eating leftovers. I even shared a big plate of chow mein, prawns, and brown rice to my friend, Patty so she didn’t have to cook dinner.
