How to Make Prawn Pakoda

3. Then add enough water to make a pouring consistency (when lifted in a spoon and dropped, it should fall in a continuous smooth stream).
4. Heat the oil in a kadahi till a drop of batter dropped in comes up at once.
5. Dip the prawns in the batter and drop into the hot oil.
6. Fry over medium heat, to a very light brown.
7. Lift out with a slotted spoon and keep aside.

9. Remove from oil, drain on an absorbent paper, and serve with a chutney or ketchup.
