Steps:
Usually, Ebi fry prawns are very straight. But it will taste just as great if you wish to keep it in its original state. Season the prawn with salt and pepper. Firstly, dredge the prawn with flour. Secondly, coat it with the beaten egg. Usually, the last step is to coat it with the Japanese Rice Flakes, however, to make it extra crispy, double dredge the prawn into flour and then egg again. Also, you can choose to omit the double dredge.
Heat the oil and wait for it to be hot enough. Gently put in 2-4 prawns in oil. Deep fry them for about 2 and a half minutes or until golden brown. Transfer the golden Ebi Fry onto a wire rack or paper towel to remove excess oil.
Tip: Between batches, scoop up the rice flakes to keep the oil clean. The burnt flakes will make the oil dark. Additionally, do not overcrowd the pot.
