Mr Ong came up with a challenge for me! Wasabi Mayo Prawn!
My first reply was.. “but… i don’t like to fry food in my kitchen! hmm ok.. i can try with air-fryer”. I seriously don’t like to fry food in my kitchen. 1st, the kitchen will get very sticky and greasy.. 2nd, I hate the splattering oil when deep frying.. 3rd, the kitchen gets real hot and I will get very agitated and my food won’t have the taste of love hehe.. anyway the reasons or excuses can go on and on…
Luckily, I have my Philip Air Fryer to help me solve part of the problem, which is air frying. The next challenge is, how to get the prawn crispy. I have done a few researches online and also tried a few methods. Finally, I agreed that adding a bit of baking powder will help in the crispiness of fried food.
And trust me, top the final product with tons of tobikko (flying fish roe). These tiny little stuffs will burst in your mouth with every bite, creating many different textures and flavour in your mouth.
1
Searing the Beef
Sear beef fillets on high heat for 2 minutes per side to form a golden crust. Let it cool before proceeding to keep the beef tender.
2
Mushroom Duxelles
Cook the mushrooms until all moisture evaporates to prevent soggy pastry. Aim for a thick, paste-like consistency.
3
Puff Pastry Handling
Keep the puff pastry cold to avoid softness. Chill if it becomes too soft, and score the top lightly without cutting through.
Notes



1
Preheat the air fryer at 200 degree celsius
Mix cornflour and baking powder together in a plate
Thaw and ensure prawns are dry before coating the prawn with the flour mixture.
After the first coat of flour mixture, dip the prawns into the egg white and re-coat the prawn with another layer of flour mixture.
Brush the prawns with oil and place the prawns in the air fryer for about 5 mins or until golden brown



2
Add the ingredients together and mix until combine
Coat the prawns with Wasabi Mayo and garnish with tobikko and parsley leaves.
Viola~~~ Time to tuck in!
