Prawn Otak Otak

A simple recipe when you are in a hurry – whether to eat with hot rice or bread. I do enjoy an otak sandwich.

If hot rice is your choice, then you can cook a portion of rice in the deeper pot and steam the otak otak in the shallow pan stacked in the ELB.

Ingredients
*5 medium sized prawns, coarsely chopped
*1 tablesp chopped Kaffir lime leaf, tear off the leaf vein to 4 pieces and sliced thinly
*2 tabsp coconut cream
*1 tabsp chilli paste (I use Mae Pranom brand. You can add more chili if you prefer spicier or omit)
*2 small sized egg
*quarter tsp salt

Method
1. Oil the shallow pan and line the base of the ELB with grease-proof paper and set aside.

2. In a separate bowl, beat eggs and add in chilli paste, keffir lime leaf, salt and coconut cream. Mix ingredients well then pour into the prepared pan.

3. Distribute the prawns evenly in the otak otak mixture.

4. Put a quarter cup water into the ELB, carefully lower the tray into the ELB and steam for 15 min. Turn off ELB and leave in the ELB for another 10 min to set.

5. Serve Prawn Otak Otak warm with rice or as sandwich filling. I ate with homemade Mee Goreng.
