Steam Tiger Prawns

I think I've tasted this dish before many, many years ago. It was cooked by my SisIL. I'm not sure whether this recipe is the same recipe but the taste is similar. Thank you to Mel from Bits-of-taste. A very simple dish but very tasty. The recipe calls for large prawns but I only have medium ones. Here is the recipe.
