Method
- Mix the seasoning with the flour in a small bowl. Beat the eggs in a second small bowl, then add the breadcrumbs to a third bowl.
- One at a time, evenly coat the prawns in the spiced flour, then the egg, and finally the breadcrumbs. Transfer to a plate.
- Heat an air-fryer to 180°C. Brush the breaded prawns with the oil, then air-fry for 4-5 mins until cooked through. Or, fry in a nonstick pan over a medium heat for 3-4 mins until cooked through and golden, tossing occasionally, adding a little more oil if needed.
- Meanwhile, mix together the mayo, chilli sauce and 2 tsp lime juice. Fill the rolls with the lettuce and tomatoes. Top with the prawns and drizzle over the sweet chilli mayo. Finish with a scattering of lime zest to serve.
