  3. Hi Maria, we too fell in love with this dish when we had it at a restaurant. I’m glad to have found this recipe as it tastes exactly the same. I’ve been making it over the last few years. My kids do not like to have prawns any other way. They simply love this one.

  4. Can I use some veggies like bell pepper, zucchini and Chinese cabbage ? I hope it would make the dish more delicious.
