Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams large prawns, peeled and deveined
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 60 grams almond flour
- 30 grams coconut flour
- 2 large eggs
- 60 milliliters unsweetened almond milk
- 100 grams panko breadcrumbs
- 200 milliliters coconut oil for frying
- 1 whole lemon wedges for serving
Instructions
Begin by cleaning and patting dry the prawns with a paper towel.
In a small bowl, combine the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Season the prawns with this spice mix.
Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes. In the first dish, mix almond flour and coconut flour. In the second, beat the eggs with unsweetened almond milk to create an egg wash. In the third, place the panko breadcrumbs.
Coat each prawn first in the flour mixture, then dip into the egg wash, and finally coat with the panko breadcrumbs. Set aside on a plate.
Heat coconut oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat until it reaches 180°C (356°F). A small piece of bread dropped into the hot oil should sizzle immediately.
Fry the prawns in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook each side for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the prawns from the oil and drain on paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
