Sambal Petai

Ingredients:
500g Prawns (cleaned, shelled and deveined) You can change or replaced with lala or Sotong in same ratio
3 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
5 shallots, roughly chopped
1 handfuls of dried chili
2 stalks of lemongrass, pounded
1/4 cup santan (preferably fresh) you can reduce this amount
1 1/2 Tbsp oil
1 1/2Tbsp asam jawa, soaked
1/2 inch belacan
Handful of Petai
Salt to taste

Method:
Boil the dried chili in water for 10 minutes then rinse it with cold water and get rid of the seeds. This will ensure that the sambal is not too spicy. Blend the chili in a blender to make it into a paste and set aside.

In a large wok heat the oil and sauté the shallots, garlic, lemongrass and belacan till fragrant and brown. Add the blended chili paste and keep stirring. Wait till the oil rises and add a splash of the asam jawa. Stir, then add a splash of santan.

Turn the heat down and let it simmer and stir occasionally. Add the rest of the tamarind water and another splash of santan. Keep stirring and let the sauce thicken. Once the sauce is thick you can add the prawns and just for a few minutes till they are cooked through. Add petai just 5minutes before Prawn are cooked through so you don't overcook the Prawn.
