1. Shell and devein prawns, leaving tails on. With point of a sharp knife make a small slit through underside of prawn.

4. Heat the oil in a wok and add finely chopped onion, garlic and ginger. Stir fry for one minute.

5. Add the prawns threaded with broccoli. Turn the prawns in the wok for about two minutes, taking care not to dislodge the broccoli.

6. Add the soy sauce, water and rice wine, bring to simmering point, cover and cook for further two minutes.

7. Thicken the sauce with corn flour mixed with water and serve immediately.
