Pazoon Ngabaung Kyaw - Thai Prawns Fried In Batter
1 ib small prawns or shrimp
1/2 cup chick pea flour (besan)
1/2 cup self-raising flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 clove garlic crushed
1/2 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 cup water
1 oil for deep frying
Take heads off prawns - there is no need to shell or de-vein them if they are as small as they
should be. Mix remaining ingredients together to form a dipping batter, stir in the prawns, then
put small spoonfuls into the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crisp. Fry only a few spoonfuls
at a time, and prevent them from sticking to each other by spooning oil over them as each one is
added to the oil. Drain on absorbent paper and serve warm.
