Servings 3

Ingredients
  

  • 10 large prawns $3.125
  • 80 g angel hair pasta $0.312
  • salt to taste
  • pepper to taste
  • 30 g pasta sauce

Instructions
 

  • Remove prawn shells, leaving the tail end untouched. Devein the prawns using a satay stick. Keep prawns in an ice water bath for 10-20 minutes prior to cooking. This helps the prawns to remain crunchy and juicy even after frying.
  • Meanwhile, bring a pot of water (with salt added) to a boil. Add angel hair pasta and cook till soft, around 3-5 minutes. Drain dry and keep aside.
  • Remove prawns from ice water bath and pat dry using paper towels. Season with salt and pepper (amount of seasoning depends on whether you are pairing the prawns with a sauce/dip). Place a couple of strands (8-10) of angel hair pasta together and carefully wrap them around a prawn. Do the same for the rest of the prawns.
  • Heat a pot of oil till hot, then deep fry the prawns in batches. Remove once pasta has turned brown. Drain dry on paper towels, then serve with your desired sauce.
