DEEP FRIED COCONUT PRAWNS

Tonight at 7pm the boys will be in The Kitchen cooking Deep Fried Coconut Shrimp.

What does this dish taste like? Recipes for coconut shrimp sometimes vary, and the dish can be eaten a few ways. Coconut Prawns are coated with flakes of dried coconut. It is then deep fried or baked. Unlike other types of breaded prawn this version is nice and sweet due to the lovely taste of coconut.
