Instructions
- n a bowl combine the mango, peach, jalapeño, sweet thai chili sauce, basil, lime juice, pinch of cayenne and pinch of salt. Give it all a good stir, taste and adjust as needed. If desired you can place the sauce in a blender and puree until you have a smooth sauce. Store in the fridge until the prawns are ready.
COCONUT-LIME FRIED PRAWNS
- In a medium bowl combine the Panko, shredded coconut, flour, crushed red pepper, lime zest, salt and pepper.
- In another smaller bowl whisk together the eggs and butter milk.
- Dip the prawns into the eggs and then dredge the shrimp through the Panko mixture, pressing gently to adhere. Place the shrimp on a plate and repeat with the remaining shrimp.
- Add enough canola oil or coconut oil to cover the bottom of a large heavy bottom skillet and heat to 170 degrees C, or medium heat. Fry the prawns in batches flipping after 1-2 minutes or until lightly golden. Place the prawns on a paper towel lined plate, repeat with the remaining prawns.
- Serve the prawns warm with the fiery mango-peach jalapeño sauce.
