Preparation Directions
- 1
Prepare the Walnuts
In a small saucepan, combine the walnuts, sugar, and 2 tablespoons of water. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves and coats the walnuts. Remove from heat and let it cool on parchment paper.

Prepare the Prawns
In a bowl, mix the cornstarch, salt, and black pepper. Dip the prawns into the cornstarch mixture, then into the beaten egg, and back into the cornstarch to create a double coating.

Fry the Prawns
