3. Deep fry the prawns for a very short while, cannot overcook.  Remove onto plate.
4. Remove surplus oil just leaving about 2 Tabsp of the oil.  Saute the garlic, chili padi then add in the sauce & bring it to a boil on medium fire.
5. Once it comes to a boil Reduce fire to low medium and add in the pre cooked prawns; stir for 3 minutes.  Off the fire then add in the honey [honey burns easily] & a little of the oil that was used to fry the prawns earlier as the oil will give it lustre.
