These light, crispy and more-ish Japanese-inspired appetisers are great as party nibbles or served as a starter.
Ingredients
- 1 egg yolk
- 200ml/7fl oz ice cold water
- 125g/4½oz plain flour, sifted

WEIGHT CONVERTER
Method
- Beat the egg yolk and water together. Tip in the flour and roughly combine - the mixture should remain fairly lumpy as this gives it its lightness when fried.
- Heat the oil in a large pan until hot enough for a piece of bread to brown in 30 secs.
- Dip the prawns and vegetables into the batter and fry in batches until light golden in colour. Drain on kitchen paper and serve.
