1/2 lb. prawns

1/4 tsp. salt

1 tsp. sesame oil

1 egg

1 tbsp. oyster sauce

1/2 tsp. cornstarch

rice paper

1 cup vegetable oil

In bowl, mix the prawns with the salt, sesame oil, egg, oyster sauce and cornstarch.

Cut the rice paper into 3-inch square pieces. Put the prawn mixture on the rice paper pieces and fold into a blanket.

Heat the oil to medium heat. Place the wrapped prawns in oil and fry for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

It is essential to make sure that the oil is hot before prawns are added so that they are not overdone.
