Instructions
 

  • 1. Start with the salsa. Simply combine the chopped pineapple, wholegrain mustard, lime zest, and chili flakes. Set aside.
  • 2. Toast the coconut flakes in a dry pan over moderate heat until lightly golden. Remove and set aside.
  • 3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the rice flour, milk, ginger, and salt. Set aside.
  • 4. With the skinless, deboned chicken breasts, slice them into thinner, even-sized strips. This will ensure even cooking (aim for the same thickness of the prawns).
  • 5. Add the thin chicken pieces and prawns to the thick batter mixture and stir well to coat. Add the toasted coconut mixture and mix gently to coat.
  • 6. Heat the oil (enough to deep-fry) in a pan. Once very hot, add pieces of chicken and prawn to the hot oil and cook until they are golden and cooked through. I advise this is done in two-three batches so as not to over-crowd the pan. An overcrowded pan of oil will lose heat and the pieces will not cook golden as they should. 
  • 7. Season the crispy pieces with the pineapple salsa. Season with salt if needed and scatter over chopped parsley or cilantro.
