Ingredients for Golden Salted Egg Yolk
3 Cooked salted egg yolks
1/2 tsp Minced garlic
1/4 tsp Minced ginger
- Mash and mince salted egg yolks. (place salted egg yolks in a plastic bag and use your hands to crush them finely)
- Heat oil and fry salted egg yolks until foamy
- Add garlic and ginger and fry until fragrant.
- Dish up and leave to cool.
Ingredients
1 slice of pumpkin (about 50g)
200g Prawns
1 1/2 tbsp Golden salted egg yolk
Seasonings
dash of salt
some rice wine
1/2 tsp plain flour
Method:
- Steam pumpkin until cooked, then mash and combine well with seasonings into paste.
- Shell prawns and remove veins and pat dry. Coat with pumpkin paste.
- Heat oil and deep fry prawns.
- Leave some oil in the pan and fry 1 1/2 tbsp golden salted egg yolk briefly over low heat. Stir in the fried prawns and briskly combine well.
Kitchen note:
The pumpkin paste gives the prawns a bright golden color and makes the dish more nutritious as pumpkin has a high content of beta-carotene.
Make sure that the oil temperature isn’t too high to avoid burning the pumpkin batter.
Prawns, my favourite, my favourite!!!

Hi Ann! How are you? Missed all your yummy posts … Have been off from blogging for a few weeks and I missed so much of your posts. This dish is very popular at Chinese restaurant here. Now I can copy your recipe to make this at home (^.^)
wow, wow looks from tempting leh….
i love this dish! Yummy!
Oh my! I love salted eggs by themeselves… this is amazing!blowing peachkissesThe Peach Kitchenpeach and things
Ann, this looks superb. Salted egg yolk is always so fragrant and gives amazing flavours when fried with almost anything… however need to be careful of the cholesterol overkill….
Wow, I like this dish a lot. I wonder if the pumpkin will be able to coat the prawns properly when you fried it because no flour being use?
The other day my colleague just mentioned this dish to me which sold in the coffee shop near her house. I only tried the crab version before, I am sure this prawn version is yum yum too.
OIC, when dine out can read from the menu on golden sand prawns and crabs.
That is new and quite informative too. I will have to visit your site more often to learn more of these interesting dishes. Thanks for sharing
Wow, this prawn dish looks fabulous with salted egg yolk…I love salted egg yolk, so did will be a winner 🙂
Ann, the prawns look so yummy, hope i ve chance to cook it 😛
cool recipe and loved the way you used the egg your right gives it a great color
Anncoo..This dish looks very inviting..This preparation is new to me. Love that you have used pumpkin paste ..and made it even more healthier..
Anncoo, this dish looks wonderful!
Anncoo..this is so delicious that drooling at it can't stop the salivating so looks like I have to cook it to satisfy my craving and stop the salivating. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Great one !
This looks quite lovely. I like the combination of eggs and prawns. Nice!! I love the name of the dish too 🙂
Thanks Mimi for your compliment.
I always learn something new here. This looks delicious.Mimi
I do have to admit that some of these interesting ingredients are somewhat foreign to me. You however got me curious…hence, I'll have to look into to it.I do know one thing…it looks absolutely delicious!!!Flavourful wishes, Claudia
Von: There is also popular dish~golden sand crab~have you tried before? Right I think this is quite unhealthy, cannot cook often ;( I really don't know what to do with the egg whites, threw way.Thanks Quinn, I think the egg yolk was quite sandy maybe add a little cream without pumpkin, also not bad~ like the popular dish golden sand crab. Thank you Lindsey ;)温馨小屋:是不错 ;DD
OH…..! I always wondered what golden sand meant….hehe Wow! This looks so yummy! It sounds really unhealthy- which is probably why it sounds so good =] What do you do with the salted egg whites?
This is so elegant looking! I will have to give this a try.
Awesome click..looks so yummy!!
I actually don't like pumpkin Ann. Any substitute???
Look like the one in the restaurant, must be very yummy.
Hi Ann, I cooked this dish tonite. I think I may have done something not right. All the pumpkin paste did not stay on the prawns once I put them into the oil to deep fry. So my prawns only tasted of the salted egg and nothing of the pumpkin. In fact, there are pumpkin bits floating in the oil. Can you tell me how did you coat the prawns with the pumpkin paste? What did I do wrong? Thanks for your help!
Thanks Mimi for your compliment.
I always learn something new here. This looks delicious.

I love salted duck eggs. Unfortunately it's hard to find them here. What they sell in Asian Market are salted chicken eggs, and it is not the same. I always love your recipes Ann. Thank you for making me drool on the shrimp with the salted yolks.
Fimere: Thank you!
Thank you Sonia 😉
Tigerfish: 谢谢噢！

Oh Lia, welcome back. I actually thought you're away for vacation.
Tata: Did you read what Indonesia-Eats said? Not all wine contains alcohol ;D
Thanks DG *.*
Bee: 谢谢你！我也是跟着食谱做的，味道还不错 ;D
Angie: The salted egg really enhanced the whole dish of prawns.
Wiffy, Ann: Thanks for your compliments.
This dish is just wonderful, like salted egg but need to watch my cholesterol level!
This sounds fabulous! Very intriguing with the golden salted egg yolk!
I've never tried this before. I'm sure I will like it.
To tatabonita: you can substitute for canesugar (cuka lahang) or nypa sap vinegar (cuka aren) instead of rice wine. Not all wine contains alcohol either 😀
Salted duck egg… noted! not only looks delish, but sounds beautiful 🙂
鲜美可口 !
This look exactly like those serve in restaurant, well done!
parfumé et appétissant, j'adore
bonne journée

Juliana, Velva, Chris: Thank you for your compliments.
