TIP 1: Over coat the Marinated prawns using corn flour and then deep fry to avoid the masala getting separated from the prawns while frying. Corn flour binds the masala with the prawns.
TIP 2: Refrigeration after marination is not a must!! Refrigeration helps the prawns to absorb the masala well. You can also keep it in room temperature and then fry it.
TIP 3: Make sure that the batter is thick enough. It should not be watery. If so adjust thickness by adding extra corn flour and spices!!
