These air-fryer coconut prawns are the perfect combination of savoury and sweet. Serve with a sweet chile sauce, for dipping.
Ingredients
Method
- Pat the prawns dry between a couple of paper towels, then season with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper.
- Pulse the coconut and panko in a food processor until finely chopped and uniform in size. Transfer to a shallow bowl.
- Whisk the flour with 3/4 teaspoon salt and few grinds pepper in another shallow bowl or a baking dish. Whisk the eggs with a pinch salt in a third shallow bowl. Dip a shrimp in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess, then dip in the beaten egg. Dredge in the coconut-panko mixture, turning until evenly coated. Transfer to a large plate or a rimmed baking sheet and continue until all the shrimp are coated.
- Preheat a 3.5L air fryer to 180 degrees C. Working in batches, place some of the shrimp in the fryer basket in a single layer, then spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Cook, flipping halfway through, until the shrimp are golden brown and cooked through, about 10 minutes.
- Serve the coconut shrimp with some sweet chile sauce for dipping.
