I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chili prawns turned out really bland. I think I might have used the wrong type of chili peppers.

The sauce is a bit too thick for my taste. I'll try thinning it out with some water next time.

The chili prawns were good, but I found the sauce to be a bit too spicy for my taste. Next time, I'll use less chili peppers.
