Sambal Udang

Method

1. 1

   Blend chilies, shallots and shrimp paste; fry until the oil separates and the paste darkens.

2. 2

   Season with tamarind and sugar — taste for the sweet-sour-hot triangle.

3. 3

   Toss in the prawns and cook just until they curl, 3 minutes.

   💡 Prawns finish fast — the sambal was the real cooking.
