Nuggets make an awesome appetizer or even a starter, not only Chicken, but Fish and Prawn Nuggets too make for an ideal choice. Relish these crispy beauties with your favourite Dips or Sauces and see how your effort in making them brings a smile on your loved ones faces. These are done very easily at home with just a few ingredients. And are perfectly crisp and crunchy too. Both frozen and fresh Prawns can be used for this. Here I have used fresh one's. Red Chilli powder is optional and only Black Pepper powder can be used instead. But I have used both for a fine colour. Red Chilli powder can be substituted with Paprika powder too for a lovely colour and flavour.
That's it. All said and done, now let's get started with the recipe.
Happy Frying with Zee!

1

Marinate Prawns with all the ingredients listed under it. Keep aside for an hour. Now dip each Prawn in the Flour slurry, then in the beaten Egg and finally coat them with the breadcrumbs before frying.
2

Do not over crowd the kadai. Flour slurry should be a bit thick in consistency. Do not make it too watery or too thick.

They will be cooked fast, so care should be taken whilst frying. Deep fry on a medium to high heat only. Serve them hot with Ketchup. Enjoy!

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
