Crispy Butter Prawns

Update: TAK SEDAP

Doesn't this look super yummy or what?

Recently, I've been spending a lot of time in the kitchen, experimenting with new recipes. Come to think of it, I should have probably applied to write a thesis on cooking or something relating to food and yummy2 stuff rather than boring old international law.

Oh well, its too late for that now. For the moment, let's just enjoy drooling over these crispy prawns before trying to make them at home.

terliur weih...esok jugak aku nak try masak bende ni


Ingredients:
  • 1kg medium prawns
  • 8 cups oil for deep frying
  • 50g salted butter or planta margarine
  • 1/2 bowl curry leaves (important key ingredient)
  • 1 tsp chopped chilli padi
  • 3 tbsp plain flour (Batter)
  • 2 tbsp corn flour (Batter)
  • 1 egg (Batter)
  • 1/2 tsp salt (Batter)
  • 1/2 tsp sugar (Batter)
  • 100ml water (Batter)
  • 1 tsp sugar (seasoning)

How to make crispy butter prawns:
It's very simple believe me! (haha...aku sendiri pon belum cuba, pandai2 cakap simple).
  1. Trim the prawns, but do not remove the shell. Wash and drain well.
  2. Heat oil for deep frying. Coat prawns with batter and deep fry until golden brown and cooked.
  3. Melt butter in a wok, saute curry leaves & chilli padi until fragrant. Add seasoning, prawns & stir fry until well mixed. Serve hot.

Warning: These yummy and crispy butter prawns are full of calories. So those of you on a diet, tengok je lah yer...kesian... :p
