Spiced Panko Prawns with Wasabi Mayo

This particular dish is inspired by my dearest friend. I had this when i was having lunch with her and i love her version! It was really yummy! Today i was craving for some of it so i decided i should reinvent the dish with a twist.

My bro was the happiest when he saw this dish, he's a big fan of finger food or fried stuff. Even my granny enjoyed it as well.


Ingredients

PRAWNS
* salt
* pepper
* corn oil
* water
* Panko
* Crispy Fry flour
* cayenne pepper powder
* prawns ( deveined and shelled)

Method:
1) Season the prawns with salt and pepper.
2) Mix the Crispy Fry flour with water and corn oil and mix until it form a thick batter.
3) Add in cayenne pepper powder and salt to the batter.
4) Coat prawns with the batter and coat it with a layer of panko.
5) Pour enough oil for shallow frying and fry the prawns in batches.
6) Placed the cooked prawns on a paper towel to absorb excessive oil.

DIP
* wasabi paste
* mayonaise

Method:
1) Mix both together and there you have it , its ready to go with your prawns.

Note:
For those that love wasabi, you can add more wasabi until you reach the exact consistency you like for your dip. You can add some finely chopped onions as well to give the dip more texture.
