Prawns in Oriental Sauces

My hubby loves prawns, I do love oriental sauces, garlic and onions. I prepared this quick-but-delicious stirfry for my beloved as he looooove prawns sooo... much. The fragrant of sauces combined perfetly with garlic and prawns, so delicious, so exotic and terribly tantalizing ;) I let the shell keep intact as it gives extra rich taste and moist flesh compared to the shelled prawns.

FRIED PRAWN IN ORIENTAL SAUCE
Ingredients:
250 gr prawns, headed
2 tsp lemon juice
1/3 tsp salt
75 ml vegetable oil
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced or finely chopped
1 medium onion, sliced roughly
5 stalks spring onion, cut into 5cm length
Sauces, mix thoroughly:
2 tsp light soy sauce
1.5 tbs teriyaki sauce
1.5 tbs oyster sauce
2 tsp worcestershire sauce (optional)
50 ml water
Method:
Marinate prawns with salt and lemon juice, let it stand for 5 minutes.
Heat oil in frying pan, fry marinated prawns just until cooked, do not overcooked, set aside.
Add chopped garlic to the remaining oil in the pan, saute over medium heat until golden in colour.
Pour in mixed sauces, turn the heat to high, let it come to a full boil.
Stir in fried prawns and sliced onion, saute for half minutes.
Add in spring onion, continue to stir for another half minutes.
Remove from heat, serve immediately.
Note:
If possible try to cook the prawns with the shell intact, this will bring a stronger and tastier flavour with extra moisture to the flesh added from the shell.
Serve with potatoes and braised vegetables.
