Tempura prawns

Serve these crispy prawns as a scrumptious starter. A glass of Nederburg sauvignon blanc pairs beautifully with the prawns.

Ingredients

12-14 prawns shelled except for tail
20 ml flour
150 ml corn flour
200 ml flour
2,5 ml Robertsons Thai seasoning
5 ml Robertsons parsley
Iced water
Oil

Method

Split prawn open down the back, remove vein and gently press the prawn open with your hand to make a butterfly shape. For the batter, combine flours and seasoning. Gradually mix in the ice water until you have a soft batter. Dip the prawns into the flour, shake gently, dip into the batter and deep fry until golden brown and cooked. Drain on paper towel. Serve with sweet sauce.

Tip: The tempura batter is also delicious when used to coat vegetables such as baby marrows or slices of Aubergine.
