Instructions:
- Preparing the Prawn Patty:
- In a food processor, combine the peeled and deveined prawns, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper. Pulse until you have a well-mixed, slightly chunky paste.
- Shape the prawn mixture into burger-sized patties. Place them on a plate and refrigerate while you prepare the coating.
- Creating the Southern Fried Coating:
- In a bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, dried oregano, and black pepper.
- Coat each prawn patty in the flour mixture, ensuring they are well covered. Shake off any excess flour.
- Frying the Prawn Patties:
- In a deep frying pan, heat enough vegetable oil for frying over medium-high heat. The oil should be around 350°F (175°C).
- Carefully place the coated prawn patties into the hot oil. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove the patties from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Assembling the Burger:
- Toast the burger buns if desired. Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun, followed by a prawn patty. Top with sliced tomatoes and your favorite burger condiments. Finish with the top bun.
