DEEP FRIED KING PRAWNS

This is a very special day. It is because it is valentines day. Just once a year and it deserves a special preparation. For tonight, I want the night to be memorable. I am cooking fried king prawns. For this dish, you will be needing the following ingredients.

1 kilo king prawns
1 pack fried mix
1/4 cup oil for frying
5 gloves garlic

procedure:

Remove the strings of the shrimps including the thorn on it's head. Wash shrimps thoroughly to remove the sea smell. Set aside the king prawns after washing. Chop the cloves of garlic into tiny bit size. Mix the pack of fried mix and the garlic. You don't need to add salt since the fried mix already contains the salt needed. Coat the king prawns with the fried mix and the garlic. Fry the prawns until crispy brown. Do not over cook the king prawns. Best serve with mayonnaise with parsley as a dip sauce.

This dish is very ideal for two. Cooking for your special someone is the best gift you can give for your love. Make it special and it will truly be memorable.
