Instructions

  1. To make dipping sauce, place half the mango, lime juice and ginger in a blender and blend until smooth. Transfer mixture to a small bowl. Finely dice the remaining mango, then add to mango puree with mint, chilli and a little water to give a dipping sauce consistency. Season with salt.
  2. Spread cornflour over a sheet of baking paper. Lightly beat eggs in a shallow bowl. Combine coconut and breadcrumbs on another sheet of baking paper and season with salt.
  3. Toss prawns in cornflour to lightly coat. Dip 1 at a time in egg, allowing excess to drip off then coat with coconut breadcrumb mixture, pressing on lightly. Place on wire rack and spray with oil.
  4. Preheat air fryer to 200°C. Lightly spray air fryer basket with oil. Arrange 9 prawns in the basket in a single layer. Air-fry 5-6 minutes until prawns are golden and crispy. Transfer to a plate and keep warm. Repeat to air-fry remaining prawns.
  5. Serve with mango sauce and lime cheeks.
