Prawn Ekkado

Start by immersing bean curd (the one that look like a paper, not the stick ones) in warm water. The easiest way to do this is by putting them in a baking tray, so they are flat. Choose the ones that are intact, but if there is a little hole, you can carefully add another layer on the broken one after they are soft.

Prepare quail eggs. If you buy them in a tin, wash them first. Or if you buy them raw, boil them and peel them.

Once the bean curd are soft, lay them flat. Put some of the minced prawn base recipe in the middle and put one quail egg in the middle. Then make a wrap of the bean curd so it forms a money bag. Tie the top with cooking string.

How to cook them:
Deep fry them in hot oil. Just make sure that you lower the fire once they are hot so you do not burn the wrapper before the filling is cooked.

Enjoy with your favorite sauce.
PS : to make them look pretty, change the cooking string with shallot cut into strips once they are cooked.

How to freeze them:
If you want to freeze them you need to steam them until they are cooked first. When they are cooked, put them in a baking tray convered with baking paper. When they are frozen, you can keep them in plastic container.
