I'm not a fan of seafood, but I actually enjoyed these fritters. They were crispy and flavorful.

Not bad, but not great either. The fritters were a bit bland and the sauce was too sweet for my taste.

These fritters were delicious! I used a mix of shrimp and crab and they were so flavorful. I will definitely be making them again.

I've made these prawn fritters several times and they always turn out great. They're a quick and easy appetizer or snack.

This prawn fritter recipe is a winner! The fritters were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a delicious prawn filling. I served them with a sweet chili sauce and they were a hit with my family.
