    Deep-fried Prawns

    Recipe Ingredients

    For the Prawns/Shrimp

    • Prawns
    • Salt
    • Oil for frying

    For the Batter

    • Flour
    • Baking powder
    • Ground black pepper
    • Egg, lightly beaten
    • Water
    • Fish sauce
    Deep-fried Prawns

    HOW TO MAKE THIS RECIPE

    For the Shrimp

    • Peel and devein the prawns, but keep the tails on. Sprinkle prawns with salt. Set aside.

    For the Batter

    • Combine the flour, baking powder, ground black pepper. Add the egg, cold water, and fish sauce. Set aside.

    Putting it All Together

    • In a pan, heat oil until hot.
    • Holding the tail of the prawn, dip the prawn into the batter using a spoon. It is better if you use a spoon because the batter is quite thick and it is much easier to use it.
    • Deep fry the prawn for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Put only 3 to 4 prawns at a time to avoid overcrowding the pan. Continue until finished.
    • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.

    How to Store

    Store in an airtight container and can be kept in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.

    What to Serve with this Dish

    This dish is best if served with a dipping sauce. Please try my favorite Filipino Sweet and Sour Sauce because it goes well with these fried prawns. You can also serve this dish as an appetizer, or as a main dish.
