Garlic prawns, a combination that’s just right Posted: 23 Aug 2013 11:53 PM PDT Which is why the accompanying ingredients are very important. Being an ingredient renowned for their pungent aroma and intense taste, I guess I can safely say you cannot go wrong when using garlic with those prawns. Also called the "stinking rose", the garlic has been an ingredient almost synonymous with antibacterial and antibiotic properties for a very, very long time. Though their antibiotic properties reduce significantly with cooking, garlic is also believed to be able to help regulate cholesterol and lower blood pressure levels. When choosing garlic, it is advisable to go for aged ones as they have more powerful antioxidant effects, which helps protect the body against damaging free-radicals. The sulphur content in the garlic is the substance responsible for its taste; the stronger the taste of the garlic, the higher its sulphur content, hence, the higher its medicinal value. They work very well in providing flavouring to the prawns when added to them, making them anything but bland. Thinking of ways to get rid of that garlicky breath said to ward off the living dead? If you ask me, I think they would scare off any living mortal as well, so do remember to pop in some mints! There - simple! Preparation time: below 10 minutes Ingredients:
