Decorate them prawns while leaving the tail. Reserve the time to prepare the dough.
Sift the flour and yeast into a bowl. Add two pinches salt and eggs. Mix and add the water in a net, stirring constantly until a smooth but not too smooth paste is obtained. Let stand for half an hour.
Peel the garlic. Open the chilli in half and seed it. Wash, dry and thin the parsley. Chop it with garlic and chilli. Mix well.
Heat the cooking oil in a large saucepan.
Coat them shrimp in the dough and slide them into the boiling oil. Let it swell. When they are golden brown, remove them from the oil with a skimmer and place them on paper towels. Repeat until exhaustion of the dough and prawns.

We can also replace prawns by small shrimp and cut into small pieces to incorporate them into the dough.
