Instant ramen po'boy prawn sando

Ingredients

  • ¼ red cabbage, finely shredded
  • 1 lime, zested and juiced
  • 45g Kewpie mayonnaise
  • vegetable oil, for deep-frying
  • 90g instant ramen noodles (we used tom yum flavour)
  • 50g plain flour
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 165g raw prawns
  • 4 thick slices milk bread

Method

  • STEP 1

    Scrunch together the cabbage with the lime zest and juice, and a small pinch of salt. Fold through the mayo and set aside in the fridge for later.

  • STEP 2

    Fill a pan no more than two-thirds full with oil. Heat the oil to 180C or until a cube of bread browns in 30 seconds. Remove the noodles from the pack and smash them in a bowl with the end of a rolling pin until well broken up but not to dust.

  • STEP 3

    Meanwhile, tip the flour with some salt and pepper into a shallow bowl and whisk to combine. If there is one, squeeze the sachet of paste from the ramen pack into a bowl, then add the egg and whisk.

  • STEP 4

    Coat the prawns in flour, then the egg, then shake them in the bowl of crushed ramen noodles, then onto a plate – you may need to do this in batches.

  • STEP 5

    Carefully lower the prawns into the oil and fry for 2-3 mins or until golden and cooked through. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly, then put in a bowl with the dried ramen seasoning, tossing to coat.

  • STEP 6

    Layer a slice of the bread with half of the slaw, then half the prawns. Sandwich with the other slice then cut in half. Repeat with the remaining bread and fillings.
