SPRING ROLL PRAWNS

Marinated jumbo prawns wrapped in spring roll wrappers and deep fried... Very simple and delicious treat for sea food lovers.. I had eaten these in a sea food restaurant in Houston and liked them a lot. I gave it a try making them at home and they tasted exactly the same..Those of you who love prawns are surely going to like them.

Ingredients:

Jumbo prawns  .... 4  ( or as needed)

Garlic paste .... 1 tsp

Soya sauce .... 1 tbsp

Chilli sauce .... 1/4 tsp (add more if you like)

Spring roll wrappers  .. Cut into 3 inch wide strips 

(I bought the ready wrappers from the store. See the recipe  HERE  for home made ones)

Oil ... to fry

For the paste:

Flour / maida .... 2 tbsps

Water ............ 1/2 cup

Dilute the maida with water and cook it in a pan whisking all the time to avoid lumps until it is thick. 

Method:

1. Clean the prawns and leave the tails intact. 

2. Marinate them with soya, chilli sauce and garlic paste.( at least for 1 hour )

3. Drain the liquid out completely. 

4. Take a strip of 3 inch wide and wrap it around the prawn sealing it with the maida  paste.

5. Heat oil and deep fry the prawn spring rolls to a golden colour until crisp on medium flame first and reducing it to low so that the prawns get cooked.

Serve hot with chilli sauce 

Pin for later
