Spot Prawn, Mango and Basil Stir Fry image

From Caper's Community Market, via the Vancouver Sun. Spot Prawns are native to the BC coast and are DELICIOUS! They are meaty, yet tender compared to tiger prawns etc. This sounds very good.

Not bad! I made a few modifications to the recipe, using shrimp instead of spot prawns and adding a bit more spice. It turned out pretty tasty, although I think I could have cooked the shrimp for a bit less time.

This spot prawn stir-fry was a hit at my dinner party! Everyone raved about the tender prawns and the unique flavor combination of mango, basil, and ginger. I'll definitely be making this again.

Meh. I found this stir-fry to be a bit bland. The flavors didn't really come together for me, and the prawns were a bit overcooked. I think I'll stick to my usual stir-fry recipe.

Wok stars! This spot prawn, mango, and basil stir-fry was an absolute delight. The prawns were cooked to perfection, tender and juicy, and the combination of sweet mango, fragrant basil, and savory sauce was heavenly. I followed the recipe precisely
