3. To start off, the prawns need to be de-shelled and de-veined.
4. Clean the prawns well.

6. In a mixing bowl, take 1/2 cup Flour, salt,egg, ground peppercorns, baking powder and mix this with a fork.
7. To this pour beer and mix the batter till the consistency is semi-liquid.
8. If the liquid feels runny, add a bit of flour to get the consistency back.
9. Keep this in the fridge for about 1/2 hour too.
10. In a flat tray, pour and spread desiccated coconut with a dry hand.
11. In my recipe, I have chopped off the tail end of the prawns.
12. But this dish tastes great with the tail as well!
13. After marination, dip each prawn into the beer batter, and then gently place over the desiccated coconut.
14. With one dry hand, spread the coconut flakes on the exposed side, and immerse in a Wok with hot oil and deep fry.
