    Ingredients

    • 10-12 Medium Prawns
    • 50g Self-raising flour
    • 1 tbsp Corn flour
    • ½ Egg
    • 2 tsp Cooking oil
    • ¼ tsp 5-spice powder or Paprika
    • ½ tsp Salt
    • ½ tsp Pepper
    • ½ can of Cold Beer
    • Oil for deep-frying
    • Corn flour for coating
    • Marinade for Prawns:
    • 2 drops of Sesame oil
    • ½ tsp Chinese Wine
    • Dash of Salt & Pepper

    Directions

    1. Remove prawn heads & keep for other uses. Dispose shells, leaving tail intact. Devein prawns by making a small slit just enough to remove veins.
    2. Make 2 slits at the back of prawns to prevent from curling during frying.
    3. Mix self-raising flour, 5-spice powder, salt & pepper. Set aside. Then mix the wet ingredients: eggs, oil & beer & whisk them. Add flour mixture slowly & whisk into batter.
    4. Heat oil. Ensure oil is hot enough for deep-frying by sticking your chopsticks into wok. Temperature is right when you see bubbles.
    5. Dust prawns with corn flour evenly.
    6. Then coat with batter. Lower prawns into wok & fry till golden brown.
    7. Refry prawns just before serving for that extra crispy touch! Enjoy your light & fluffy Prawn Fritters! Bon Appetit!
