GRAND MARNIER PRAWNS

20 - prawns                                                 
1 ½ cups corn starch 

Sauce:

1 cup Grand Marnier                                       
3 Tablespoons. dried orange zest (pulse in a coffee grinder)   
4 cups orange juice                                            
2 cups mayonnaise                                                         

For the sauce, add the Grand Marnier to a sauce pan and burn off the alcohol, cool immediately.

Reduce in a separate pan the orange juice to a syrup and cool immediately.  

Combine the Grand Marnier, orange syrup and pulsed orange zest powder with the mayonnaise and refrigerate.

To cook the prawns, heat canola oil or frying oil to 350 degrees. Dust the prawns in the cornstarch, shaking off any excess starch. Fry the prawns until crispy (about 2 minutes) and drain on paper towels. In a large bowl, toss the hot prawns in the Grand Marnier mayonnaise to coat.
