How to Make Coconut Prawns With Coriander Mayonnaise

  1. Peel and devein the prawns, leaving the tails intact.
  2. In a shallow dish, whisk together the coconut flakes, flour, and spices.
  3. Dip each prawn into the coconut mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
  4. Heat the oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat.
  5. Carefully place the prawns in the hot oil and fry for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Remove the prawns from the pan and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  7. While the prawns are frying, prepare the coriander mayonnaise: In a bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, chopped fresh coriander, lime juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  8. Serve the coconut prawns immediately with the coriander mayonnaise. Garnish with extra coriander leaves, if desired.
