About Braised prawns

Braised Prawns is a flavorful dish often associated with Chinese cuisine, showcasing the delicate texture and rich taste of prawns. The recipe typically includes prawns simmered in a savory sauce made from soy sauce, ginger, garlic, rice wine, and sugar. These ingredients create a harmonious balance of sweet, salty, and umami flavors. Prawns themselves are a great source of lean protein, vitamins, and minerals, including selenium and vitamin B12, which support immune health and energy production. They are also low in calories and fat, making them a heart-healthy choice. However, traditional preparation may include higher amounts of sodium and added sugar, which could be concerns for individuals monitoring their intake of these nutrients. Pairing Braised Prawns with steamed vegetables or whole grains can enhance its nutritional value, rounding out the dish as a wholesome, satisfying meal.
