Asian crispy king prawn salad


Start with the vinaigrette by mixing 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1/2 tbsp Mirin, 1/2 tbsp sake, 1/2 tbsp rice vinegar and some grated garlic and ginger. Stir well and add 1/2 tbsp oyster sauce, 1/2 tbsp sweet chili sauce, 1/2 tbsp sesame oil, 1 tbsp sunflower oil, 1/2 tbsp lemongrass puree and the juice of 1/4 lime. Reserve in the fridge.

Toast a tbsp sesame seeds in a dry pan.

To give them a better bite cover 6 nice big prawns in coarse sea salt, during 4 mins. Rinse, dry with kitchen paper and keep in the fridge for 2 hours.

Then dust them with some curry powder and pepper.

Beat an egg in a soup plate

Crush 50g Panko and put in a 2nd plate

Drag the prawns first trough the egg, then trough the Panko.

Repeat this!!

Halve a red chili lengthwise, remove the seedy parts and slice half the pepper in a brunoise. Boil for 1 min in some water to make it less hot, drain and reserve

Slice 1/2 shallot in brunoise, rinse and drain.

Warm 1 tbsp agave syrup, add the shallot and red chili and sweat.

Add a small glug of sake, 1/2 tbsp Mirin and 1/2 tsp rice vinegar. Boil for 30 seconds, keep in the fridge.

Cut 50g cucumber (peeled and without the seeds), 50g carrot, a  baby paksoi and 25g leek in a julienne. Remove both ends from 25g taugĂ© (bean sprouts).

Mix the veggies with some enoki mushrooms, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 1/4 tsp sesame oil and a few drops of lime juice.

Take the vinaigrette from the fridge and add the toasted sesame seeds.

Deep fry the prawns in sunflower oil, at 180°C till golden and crispy.

Start plating with the salad, then add the prawns. Cover them with the shallot compote and finish with the vinaigrette, some cress and coriander.
