Mix the cornflour and flour together into a  bowl.

Stir the egg and whisk from the center outwards, until just combined.

Heat the oil in a  pan until a breadcrumb sizzles and turns brown when dropped into it.

Place the flour onto a plate and dredge the prawns into it to cover well.

Dip the prawns into the batter and carefully add to the hot oil to deep-fry in batches for 2-3 minutes, or until crisp and golden.

Carefully remove with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper.

Serve in bowls with a bowl of soy sauce for dipping.
