Recipe: Crispy Honey Prawns
A little indulgence for your weekend.
I was given this recipe by Brendan Byth who makes the best fish and chips in the city (big claim, I know, so give me your suggestions) and it was a lot of fun to make.
It had been years since I deep-fried anything but I found his recipe for fried prawns delicious and simple. The batter puffed up beautifully and was crispy, the prawns were tender and perfectly cooked.
*TIP* Aside from oil spatter, a major thing to look out for when frying is pace. Pre-dip your prawns in batter and have them all ready on a plate so that when the oil is hot you can pay attention to each prawn cooking and get them served up quickly.
Bon appétit!
