The version of the XO sauce used here is leaning towards the flavour of Taiwan. It is aromatic but without the spicy punch of dried scallops and chilli normally found in Hong Kong style of XO sauce. .
[Slide Left] The prawns are deep-fried, giving the shell a solid crispy texture, followed with firm yet bouncy flesh of the prawns. The XO is on the mild side and thus allowing the flavour of the prawn to shine.
.
[Slide Left] Golden Cereal Prawn Balls. Instead of prawn balls, our dishes use whole deep-fried prawns. The golden cereal is aromatic, crispy and sweet, allowing you to bite into the prawns without deshelling it. Some people will like it; however, I find the sweetness level in the cereal mix a bit off-putting for me.
