Sigh, I haven't had chipped beef in eons. It was often the highlight
of my dad's Sunday breakfasts. I don't even think my store carries
it; I have certainly never noticed it. Damned, I have to find some!

     Title: Wokking Mum's Marmite Prawns
Categories: Singapore, Shrimp
  Servings: 2

     10 md Prawns, slit the back and
           devien
           Corn Flour for dusting
           Oil for frying
           SEASONINGS:
     50 ml Water
      4    pieces Rock Sugar (those in
           regular rectangular shape)
      1 ts Sugar
    2/3 TB Marmite

My father bought many bottles of Bovril and it was like I only ate
plain porridge with Bovril. My father once told me, he was glad he
found Bovril as my appetite increased after adding Bovril in my
meals. During that time Bovril contains beef and my father found it
nutritious enough of a young kid *me!* who hardly eats. Well, at
least it's better than eating plain porridge.

The Bovril in Singapore doesn't contains beef now due to the Mad-Cow
disease many years ago. I know the ones in UK is back with its
original containing beef. I do wish Singapore would import that too.
I miss it.

I found out about Marmite during my teen years, the alternative
choice if you are a vegetarian or can't take beef. It took me a
while to get used to the taste.

Other than adding Marmite or Bovril to your porridge or making it as
a hot drink, you can actually cook using it. If you like Marmite or
Bovril, you will like the dishes you cook it with and it easy too
because since it rather flavourful, you don't need much seasoning.

For this dish, I'm using Marmite instead Bovril.

How to do it:

Lightly dust prawns with cornflour. Deep fry prawns in hot oil till
they turn red. Remove and drain prawns. Add prawns in a wok. Add in
the seasonings. Stir fry in low till the sauce is thickened and
almost dried up. Dish and serve.
