Ingredients
  • 8 cloves garlic, chopped, or more to taste
  • 2 tablespoons tapioca flour
  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce
  • 2 tablespoons light soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil, divided, or as needed
  • 1 pound whole unpeeled prawns, divided
Instructions
1
Combine minced garlic, tapioca flour, fish sauce, soy sauce, sugar, and white pepper in a bowl; mix well to create a marinade.
2
Add the prawns to the marinade and toss gently to coat them evenly.
3
Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large, heavy skillet over extremely high heat.
4
Add half of the prawns in a single layer; fry until they turn golden brown and crispy, approximately 1 to 2 minutes per side.
5
Repeat the process with the remaining oil and the remaining prawns.
