Assam lemongrass prawns

Geez,have not been blogging for some time...sigh,been feeling so so tired lately,clover is now 5 mths old,lately,she has been bugging me for feeds every two hours day and night,hmmm...think that is an indication that she is ready for weaning,as milk alone is not enough to substain her hunger pangs...Lately,she also seem to take on a keen interest in our food,something which used to unfaze her till now..during meal times,she will be staring intently at our food and watching us tucking in...whilst poor her only get to see but not eat...haha..


Oh well,despite being tired,I still yearned for some home-cooked meal,afterall,it is useless in keeping all those recipes till they turn yellow and tattered..isnt it?Got my lao gong to entertain clover while I whipped up dishes in a jiffy,nothing too complicated,please..haha...
My lao gong loves it for its sour and spicy taste helps to whet our appetite,making him asking me when's our next grocery trip will be?haha...

Heres the recipe for those keen in giving it a shot:
ASSAM LEMONGRASS PRAWNS
300g prawns
2 lemongrass,pounded to release flavour
1 tbsp assam seeds,soaked in 1 cup of water
1 lg onion,chopped
3 cloves of garlic
4 bird's eye chilli ,sliced

1.Shelled and devined prawns,rinse and set aside.
2.Heat up wok ,add in 1 tbsp of oil,fry garlic onion and chilli till brown and fragrant.
3.Add in prawns and assam juice.Add in lemongrass.Stir fry for a while.
4.Once gravy starts boiling,and prawns are cooked ,turn off heat and serve.
