Stuffed zucchini flowers were so 90's and very trendy . I'm bringing them back and putting them on the plate . You will need 12 pumpkin flowers , stems intact with the stamens removed , set aside . Place 150 gm of green prawns , shelled and deveined in a mortar and pastle into a fine paste. Add 10 gm of dried dill , 1 tbs of fish sauce , 1 tbs of minced garlic ,a pinch of salt and pepper . Mix until it comes together . In a separate bowl beat 2 egg whites togeher lightly . Take a tsp of the prawn mixture and carefully stuff each pumpkin flower . Brush each flower with egg white then dust each flower with rice flour until dry , shake of excess flour . In a deep fryer , saucepan or wok add enough peanut oil and heat to 180 deg C . fry the flowers until crisp ,taking care not allowing them to brown , remove and place on absorbent paper towel . Serve as a shared entree on a large platter with a sqeeze of lime and a sprinkle of dried dill .
