Spicy Chili Prawns with Egg Tofu

Having to organise a makan session for my family, I was a mess!

I wasn't focus as to what dish to prepare and what to buy in advance. I need something quick but delicious. I saw this bottle of chili sauce at Cold Storage with a tiny recipe tag on top of it. So I decide to try this.


Oh well...its like playing russian roulette. Either it is a hit or miss. Luckily for me, it was a hit!


It was well liked by all except those who doesn't take spicy food.


Be warned, Singlong Chili Crab sauce is indeed spicy. Not for children.


I made a few changes to this recipe such as adding egg tofu, chopped garlic and tomato ketchup.
