Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1/4 teaspoon Szechuan peppercorns
  • 1/4 teaspoon white peppercorns
  • 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup peanut oil
  • 1 pound large prawns in the shell (preferably fresh), split down the back and vein removed
  • 1 teaspoon chopped garlic
  • 1 teaspoon seeded and minced serrano chile, or more to taste

Directions

Prepare pepper-salt: In a small saute pan over medium heat, toast Szechuan and white peppercorns for about 3 minutes, shaking the pan. They will smoke and pop like popcorn, but don’t let them burn. Let cool, then coarsely grind the pepper in a spice mill, and combine with salt in a small bowl; set aside.

Place cornstarch in a medium bowl. Heat peanut oil in a wok or large saute pan over high heat until it is just short of smoking. Toss prawns in the cornstarch, and remove excess by shaking coated prawns in a sieve. Add prawns to the wok, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, tossing a few times to cook through on both sides. With a large spatula, hold the prawns in place, tip the wok, and pour off and discard the excess oil. Add garlic, minced chile, and pepper-salt mixture. Return the wok to the heat, and toss prawns with the spices until spices release their fragrance and coat the shells, about 1 minute.
