Equipment

1 Skillet
1 Food processor

Ingredients

2-4 Giant River Prawns (adjust to your preference)
Butter
Salt

For Nam Jim Seafood (Dippings)

8 Red Chilis
7 Cloves Garlic
2 tbsp Sugar
5 tbsp Lime Juice
3 tbsp Fish Sauce
(as much as you like) Cilantro

Combine and blend in a food processor.

Instructions

You can start by making a dipping sauce of Nam Jim Seafood. Mix together eight red chilis, seven garlic cloves, two tablespoons sugar, 5 mL of lime juice, 3 ml of fish sauce or cilantro in a food processor to make whatever you like. Until you've got a delicious sauce, blend it. Set it aside.
Now, let's focus on the Long Arm River Prawns. Rinse them thoroughly under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel.
Heat a pan over medium-high heat and add a generous amount of butter. Allow it to melt and sizzle.
Place the prawns in warm butter, gently. Put a small amount of salt on them. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and develop a lovely golden color.
Once the prawns are cooked, remove them from the pan and place them on a serving plate.
Serve the Long Arm River Prawns with the prepared Nam Jim Seafood dipping sauce on the side. This sauce adds a zesty and spicy kick that perfectly complements the prawns' rich flavor.

Notes

Variations and Substitutions:

If you can’t find Giant River Prawns, you can use regular-sized prawns or even shrimp for this recipe.
Adjust the spiciness of the Nam Jim Seafood sauce by adding or reducing the number of red chilis.

Storage:

The best way to enjoy this meal is by eating it fresh, but you can store any leftovers of your dipping sauce in an airtight refrigerator for a week.

Serve With:

Long Arm River Prawns are delicious on their own but pair wonderfully with steamed rice or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
