Breaded Fried Prawns

In this recipe, I used frozen prawns. But if you use the fresh one, then peel the prawns keeping the tail intact. Then devein, wash and pat dry with a kitchen tissue and then season with salt and pepper. If you use frozen, thaw prawns properly then wash and pat dry with a kitchen tissue. In this recipe, I used homemade breadcrumbs. But you can use panko breadcrumbs. Serve hot these breaded fried prawns with tomato ketchup.
