Ingredients
Instructions
**1. Prepare the celeriac remoulade:** Finely chop the chives, parsley, and capers. In a bowl, combine these with the juice of the lemon, mayonnaise, buttermilk, and Dijon mustard. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Peel the celeriac, cut it into quarters, and thinly slice each quarter into matchsticks. Add the celeriac to the bowl, toss to combine, and refrigerate until needed.
**2. Set up the dredging station:** In three separate shallow bowls, place the following:
- **Flour mixture:** Combine the plain flour with 1 teaspoon of onion granules and a pinch of salt.
- **Egg wash:** Beat the eggs.
- **Breadcrumb mixture:** Mix the panko breadcrumbs with the remaining onion granules, garlic granules, cayenne pepper, Old Bay seasoning, and a pinch of salt.
**3. Coat the prawns:** Pat the raw king prawns dry with paper towels. Dip each prawn into the flour mixture, ensuring an even coat, then into the egg wash, and finally into the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
**4. Air-fry the prawns:** Preheat the air fryer to 190°C (375°F). Arrange the coated prawns in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Lightly mist both sides with spray oil. Air-fry for 7-9 minutes until the breading is crisp and the prawns are cooked through.
**5. Prepare the sandwich components:** While the prawns are cooking, shred the iceberg lettuce into thin strips. Slice the submarine rolls in half and toast them lightly in the air fryer for a few minutes until warmed through.
**6. Assemble the po' boys:** Spread 2-3 tablespoons of the celeriac remoulade on the bottom half of each toasted roll. Top with shredded lettuce, a few cornichon slices, and the air-fried prawns. Place the top half of the roll over the fillings to complete the sandwich.
**7. Serve:** Slice each po' boy in half and serve immediately.
**Tips for best results:**
- Ensure the prawns are well-dried before coating to achieve a crispier texture.
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches if necessary.
- For added flavor, consider adding a few dashes of hot sauce to the remoulade.
- If celeriac is unavailable, a combination of celery and apple can be used as a substitute.
