The Chinese combine foods in an unusual way, sometimes mixing seafood with meats, especially pork. The result is delicious, savoury and quite tasty Here minced pork is used to extend the more expensive prawns.
The best prawns to use are the uncooked variety. Although they often come frozen, a rinse in cold water with a tablespoon of salt is a technique used by Chinese cooks to refresh them. This recipe is equally good with fresh scallops.
