Instructions for Andaman Style Steamed Garlic Prawns Recipe

To begin making the Andaman Style Steamed Garlic Prawns recipe, in a heat proof boil collect chopped garlic and green chilies and keep aside.

Heat vegetable oil in a pan till smoking hot, and pour the hot oil immediately over the chopped garlic and chilies. Wait till they crackle and leaves and aroma. Set aside to cool.

While the garlic oil is cooling, set up a steamer and place the prawns in a pan/plate that will go inside the steamer.

Pour the garlic infused oil all over the prawns and gently rub them, season with some salt and set to marinade till the steamer gets ready.

Now steam the prawns for around 8 to 10 minutes.

Meanwhile mix soy sauce and sesame oil in a small bowl.

Take out the cooked prawns and spoon the sauce mix all over.

Sprinkle some freshly crushed black pepper and some chopped coriander.

Drizzle some lemon juice over the prawns if you like or else skip it. Serve hot.
