Looks good! Prawns and eggs dish is a family favourite. Like you mentioned, I, too cannot get the way it should be done! It's the 'wok hei'! I used a non-stick pan. Duh!
one of my fav dishes! :)
She must have some secret ingredient that she's not telling you. Although don't most things taste better when they're cooked by someone else?
Wow, gorgeous photos! I need to try this right away, although I, too, use a nonstick wok—I know—and my stove doesn't have powerful burners. But even an inferior version would surely be yummy.
Sure looks yummy! I got to try it with fish sauce. :)
I love scrambled egg. With prawns and spring onions, it's even better!
Moms always have that one thing that tastes better when they make it. I bet when you have lil SC, he will try to make something you make and it won't taste as good. ;)
I love this! And SC's mama's version does look very yummy!!! And oh! So much prawns = yayness!
I did not know that is a classic HK dish :O ....it looks so yummy! I can only depend on myself to cook myself this dish. You are v lucky :)
My mouth is watering!

So yummy!! <3
Oh God, THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVE CHINESE DISHES. EVER. Momma Lee makes this for me sometimes when we manage to get hold of yummy prawns (which isn't that often) so it's a total treat. LOVE IT.

I must try this dish, looks so good. Mama's magic touch? Then when you cook it for lil SC next time, it'll be just as nice hehe
It looks and sounds delicious. I never thought of cooking prawns (or any shellfish) with eggs. Are there other Chinese dishes like this?
