  1. Clean prawns, slit and de-vein, leaving the tail intact. Flatten slightly with the back of a knife. Apply salt and half the lemon juice and keep aside.
  2. Take refined flour in a bowl. Break eggs into it. Add crushed red chillies, salt, honey and a little water and mix properly to make a smooth batter.
  3. Heat sufficient oil in a pan/kadai. Crush the cornflakes with hand and spread on a plate. Dip the prawns in the batter and roll in the cornflakes.
