You will need:
- 1 kg prawns, peeled with tails left on
- 1 ltr vegetable oil
- 380 ml milk
- 220 g flour
- 2 eggs
- 2 lemon wedges
- salt and pepper
Step 1:
Into the bowl add the flour, eggs and milk. Season with salt and pepper and whisk until it becomes smooth and lump free.
Step 2:
Run a knife down the centre of the prawns back. With the tip of the knife, gently pull out the dark vein that runs down the middle.
Step 3:
Fill the pan with the oil, place it on a medium heat and allow it warm through. This will about 5 minutes.
Step 4:
To check that the oil is hot enough place a little batter into the oil. If it starts to fry then it's ready. Dip a prawn into the bowl of batter and put it in the hot oil. Fry a quarter of the prawns in exactly this way for a couple of minutes. Remove them with a slotted spoon and place onto a plate lined with kitchen towel to drain. Repeat the dipping, frying and draining in batches with the remaining prawns.
Step 5:
Transfer the cooked prawns into a serving bowl. Sprinkle over some sea salt and serve hot with some lemon wedges.
