About Sambal prawn

Sambal Prawn is a flavorful seafood dish originating from Southeast Asian cuisine, especially popular in Malaysia and Indonesia. It features succulent prawns stir-fried in a fiery sambal sauce made from a blend of red chilies, garlic, shallots, shrimp paste, tamarind, and sometimes sugar for balance. Rich in protein and omega-3 fatty acids, prawns provide heart-healthy benefits and support muscle growth. The dish’s aromatic spices contain antioxidants that may help combat inflammation. However, Sambal Prawn can be high in sodium and saturated fat due to the use of shrimp paste and oil. Moderation is key, and balancing it with steamed vegetables or rice can make it part of a wholesome meal. Its bold, spicy flavors make it a beloved choice for those seeking a nutrient-rich yet indulgent dish.
