Method
In a bowl, mix together the ingredients for the sauce. Set aside.
In another bowl, combine the prawns, soy sauce, black pepper powder and egg.
In another bowl, mix together the maida, cornflour, pepper and salt. Add the prawns to the flour individually and coat well. Once coated, dust off the excess flour and move it to another plate.
Heat up oil for shallow frying. Add the prawns to the pan without overcrowding the oil. Fry for 2 minutes on each side, or until it turns crispy. Remove it into a bowl.
Add the sauce to it and mix to coat the fried prawns with the sauce.
To serve, place lettuce leaves in a cocktail glass (or alternatively, in a plate). Fill with the dynamite prawns and sprinkle chopped spring onions on top.
