Sweet soy sauce prawns

Our city hike today was fun and I learned more about San Francisco. But more on that tomorrow. Now, I'd like to complete my patriotic duty - Dish #7! It's a simple dish with 5 ingredients - prawns, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic and black pepper that my husband cooked for dinner tonight. I just took pictures and ate! He says his mom cooks something similar and he was just guessing the dish. He usually just "agak-agak" (estimates) the proportion, but this time, I asked him to note them down so I could write them here. Keep the shells and heads on so that the prawns stay moist.

Sweet soy sauce prawns

1 lb prawns
3 tablespoon soy sauce
3 tablesoon brown sugar
3 cloves garlic, minced
½ tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon oil for frying

1. Mix the soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic and pepper in a bowl. Marinate the prawns with the mixture. Cover and refrigerate for 2-4 hours.

2. Heat oil in a pan or wok to medium hot. Put the prawn mixture in and cook until the prawns turn pink. If you'd like a little sauce in the dish, just add a tablespoon of water while cooking.
