For the Coconut Prawns

Method

For the Coconut Prawns

  1. 1

    Prepare the Breading Station

    Set up three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, add the all-purpose flour mixed with salt and black pepper. In the second bowl, beat the large eggs. In the third bowl, combine the shredded coconut and panko breadcrumbs.

  2. 2

    Bread the Prawns

    Dip each prawn first into the flour mixture, shaking off the excess. Then, dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the coconut and panko mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

  3. 3

    Fry the Prawns

    In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the coated prawns in batches, frying until golden brown and cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
