My simple fried prawns

I love fried prawns, but don't like the tempura ones as too much batter, and I also don't like just prawns being fried, then will be boring. How about just a very thin layer of batter for my simple fried prawns.

Ingredients:

- 300g prawns, peeled and clean
- 1 egg
- 1 table spoon wheat flower
- salt, peper and chili powder
- cooking oil

Methods:

Mix the flower, egg, a little bit of water with salt, pepper and chili powder till it becomes a thin batter. Put the prawns in and mix gently till all the prawns are cover in that thin batter.

Heat a little bit of oil, just one table spoon, in a frying pan till it is hot. Take each prawn, shake off the liquid, and put on the pan one by one.

Fry each side till it turns golden.
And here are the fried prawns, with a very thin layer of batter that I like, not too oily, but not boring, love it ;)
