Cucur Udang Alla Nana...

Assalaumiualaikum and Salam Sejahtera to all?

This time, I m sharing one of a very typical recipe of all time? hehe, Cucur Udang?. What? Cucur Udang, whatta heck is that? Hmmm? it?s Prawn Fritters, but not only that, this one has specialty from one of my colleague who always make this all time favorite in our kitchen?so, who? Chef Nana in the house yooo?

As Ramadan already passed the 3rd day and still a long way to go for Eid Mubarak, see, Ramadan always reminds me of food, especially during day time you?re not eating and your mind is full with this food that you wanted to eat when you break your fast? When I was a younger, there was Cendol, Puspa, Putu Mayang, Pulut Panggang, Bingka, Cucur this and that (wah? I love cucur udang a lot tho among all) Satay, lauk besalai, lauk pais, wow!!... I think I cant stop mentioning? its just too many food during this holy month?

So, Cucur Udang always find its way on everyone of us, my mom used to make it everyday when the season of ?Tugu? (a fishing method where fisherman aims for prawns and its get very cheap in the market too) until now when I see extra prawn? what else I m gonna do, fritters them lah?

Recipes?

500 gm prawns (peeled and clean/wash)
500 gm flour (flower??)
600 ml water (I?d use fish stock)
100 gm carrot (grated)
30 gm chilies (sliced)
50 gm shallots (sliced)
50 gm onion (sliced)
¼ lemon (take juice only)
50 gm spring onion or chives (sliced)
Frying oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Method:

Tips: to check seasoning, you may fry one for test, when u happy then cook the rest, if not then season again. Also, if you don?t eat chilies, don?t put lah? as for me, I?d put as much as I want? love chilies.

This dishes is good to be served when its hot? yummy, and serve it with chili sauce or ketchup? Sorry, you gotta use bottled sauce as I don?t have pics (not recipes) for home made chili sauce, will share in the future?

This sounds like a simple recipe at all, yes, it is? hope you?ll enjoy trying? ;)
