Prawn fritters

Ingredients [1]

  • 500-600g medium large prawns
  • 150g self-raising flour
  • 1/8 tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp pepper
  • 260-300ml water

Method

  1. Shell the prawns, leaving the tails intact. Dab dry and set aside.
  2. Sift self-raising flour and bicarbonate soda together and combine with salt and pepper in a mixing bowl. Pour in water gradually and stir and mix until batter is free from lumps. The consistency of batter should be just thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
  3. Dip prawns in batches into batter and deep-fry in medium hot oil until lightly golden brown. Remove and drain on absorbent kitchen towels.
