Spicy Tempura Prawns

TGIF ....! Fridays is party day and that's when mostly friends come over or we go to their place. So all the new dishes and experiments are also on Fridays! After all it’s good to cook with company :) for bad or for worse! & all credit to my friend for going creative on the plate and taking the pic for this recipe. Thx D! Will miss you :(

Now coming back to the recipe, I love this dish not only because it’s very easy to make but also retains the prawn flavour. What I essentially meant is that the coating does not overpower the prawn flavour. It just took me approximately 20 minutes to prepare this amazingly simple starter!

Ingredients:

• Large prawns - 25o gms (Clean and devein )
• Plain four - 150 gms
• 2 tbsp corn four
• 1 egg
• salt - as per taste
• pepper - as per taste
• ice cold water - 1 cup ( or 2 -3 cubes of ice )
• Oil - for deep frying

Method:

• Beat the egg , to this slowly sift in the flour and cold water and keep this batter aside for 15 minutes ( the batter will set properly and get the right consistency)
• To this add salt & pepper as per taste
• Now dip the prawns in the mixture and deep fry them until golden brown in colour
• Drain them well and serve with any sauce you like.

Enjoy!
