Pro tips
- For extra crispiness, ensure your batter isn't too thick. Add a splash more milk if needed.
- Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket. This ensures even cooking and crispiness.
- You can add a pinch of curry powder or other spices to the batter for extra flavor.
Method
- 1Finely chop the peeled and deveined prawns. You want small pieces for the fritters.
- 2In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, egg, milk, chopped cilantro, grated ginger, minced garlic, red chili flakes, salt, and black pepper until a smooth batter forms.
- 3Gently fold the chopped prawns into the batter until evenly combined.
- 4Preheat your air fryer to 200°C (400°F).
- 5Lightly brush the air fryer basket with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
- 6Spoon dollops of the prawn batter into the preheated air fryer basket, ensuring not to overcrowd. You may need to cook in batches.
- 7Air fry for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fritters are golden brown and cooked through.
