  3. Mix the prawns to this and mix gently. Allow to rest for 30 min atleast. Now add the parmesan cheese to it and mix it.

  6. Place the dipped prawns in the bread crumps and roll it. Again dip the coated prawns in the APF corn paste and again roll in the bread crumps. This is done for more crispiness and also gives a good coating. ( if you don’t want the double coating you can leave this step ). Do the same for all the prawns.

Recipe Notes

Cleaning the prawns in salt removes the bad smell.
Instead of All purpose flour and corn mixture, you can use egg.
This Creates a very good binding. I didn’t use it as my mom won’t eat eggs.
If you do not like oregano and basil, you can skip it, but I recommend as it gives nice flavor.
You can try adding our own Indian spices like garam masala, tikka masala for more flavor and spiciness. I am also planning to do when I try the same next time.
Instead of Paremesan cheese, you can add regular cheese too or a combination of both.
