Wasabi Prawn On Air Fryer Sweet Potato Roundles#FishFriday

Japanese are very artistic when comes to the serving their food. Wasabi prawns traditionally are deep fried, topped with the sauce, super delicious. As you bite into these appetizers you will feel the sweet and crispiness of the sweet potato, spicy, sharp taste of the horse radish and the tingling flavor of wasabi mayo.

They are blast of flavors in your mouth and you will not be able to stop at one or two, you'll stretch your hand to have more, that, I can assure you. So prepare more that you can imagine if you are making these for a party.

I have used Wasabi Mayo that comes in a tube which is a prepared paste. Do try these you will love them.

Ingredients
150 Grams Cleaned Prawns- tail shell intact and de-veined
3 Tablespoon Corn Flour
1 Teaspoon Red Chilly Powder
1 Teaspoon Lemon Juice
½ Teaspoon salt
Oil required for deep frying

For Serving
Wasabi Mayo
Air Fryer Sweet Potato Chips

Method

Wash and pat dry the prawns. In a bowl mix the lemon juice, salt, corn flour and red chilly powder well. Add the prawns and toss them well so that they are coated with flour. Keep them aside for 15 minutes.

Heat the oil in small deep frying pan when hot, add only two prawns at a time and fry them for just two minutes on each side ( if you over fry them they will become rubbery and dry out, they will not be juicy) . So fry them in batches. Remove with a slotted spoon and keep aside on a kitchen towel to drain the excess oil.
For serving

Arrange the sweet potato roundels in a serving plate, squeeze a teaspoon of the wasabi paste, place the prawns as shown in the pic. Pick and enjoy, makes perfect Amuse Bouche.

Serve warm with the wasabi dressing.

My Notes

Drain the prawns properly. They should be ''dry'' and not dripping in water when you begin. It is best to leave it in a colander for 10 minutes which will allow the water to drain and then pat it dry with kitchen paper before starting to fry.
