Thai Name: Goong Chup Paeng Tod (กุ้งชุบแป้งทอด)
Origins: Fried prawns in crispy coatings have been a cornerstone of Thai street food culture for generations — found sizzling in woks and deep fryers at coastal markets and night bazaars from Phuket to Pattaya, where the abundance of fresh prawns along Thailand’s long coastline made them one of the most natural and celebrated ingredients in the Thai street food repertoire. The technique of coating whole prawns before frying — protecting the delicate flesh from the fierce heat of the oil while creating a crispy golden exterior that gives way to sweet, tender prawn inside — is one of those culinary ideas so perfectly suited to its ingredient that it has remained essentially unchanged for centuries. In Thailand, the quality of a fried prawn dish is judged above all else on two things: the freshness and size of the prawn inside, and the texture of the coating outside. A soggy coating or a rubbery prawn is considered a serious failure. A perfectly crispy shell encasing a juicy, sweet whole prawn is considered a mark of genuine skill — and at the best street food stalls across Thailand, that standard is maintained with complete consistency.
Our Version: At Sireeya’s Taste of Thailand, every Tempura Prawn is coated in a homemade breadcrumb mix. Five whole prawns are carefully coated by hand and gently deep fried to order until perfectly crispy and golden brown all the way around — the homemade breadcrumb creating a crust that is lighter, crispier and more flavourful than a standard coating,. Served with your choice of sweet chilli dipping sauce or tartare sauce — two completely different accompaniments that offer two completely different eating experiences from the same outstanding prawn.
What You Get: Five whole prawns coated in a homemade breadcrumb mix and gently deep-fried to crispy golden perfection. Served with your choice of sweet chilli dipping sauce or tartare sauce.
Tempura Prawns are crispy, golden and deeply satisfying — here’s what our customers love ordering alongside them to build a complete and memorable Thai meal.
🥥 Panang Curry
Tempura Prawns followed by Panang Curry is one of the most indulgent and rewarding meal progressions on the menu — and one of the most naturally coherent. The crispy golden prawns open the meal with lightness and crunch, and the rich, thick coconut Panang sauce arrives as the most luxurious possible follow-on — deep, aromatic and made with authentic curry paste sourced by Sireeya directly from Koh Lanta in Southern Thailand. The natural sweetness of the prawn inside the crispy coating echoes the characteristic gentle sweetness of the Panang sauce, creating a quiet but convincing flavour thread that runs through both courses and makes the meal feel genuinely considered rather than assembled at random.
🌿 Pad Kra Pao
A pairing of completely satisfying contrast — from the delicate, golden crispiness of the Tempura Prawns to the fierce, smoky boldness of Pad Kra Pao’s holy basil stir fry with garlic, chilli and oyster sauce. The light, clean flavour of the crispy prawn starter sets the palate up perfectly for the intense, punchy heat of the basil stir fry that follows — the two dishes occupying completely opposite ends of the Thai flavour spectrum and making each other taste more distinctive and more rewarding for it. A combination that moves from charming to bold and never misses a step.
🍜 Tom Yam Nam Khon
Five crispy golden prawns followed by a bowl of creamy Tom Yam Nam Khon is a seafood pairing of genuine elegance and completely authentic Thai spirit. The velvety, coconut-enriched hot and sour broth with lemongrass, galangal and kaffir lime provides a rich, invigorating follow-on to the crispy starter — both dishes celebrating the natural sweetness of prawn from completely different cooking directions, one crispy and golden, the other silky and aromatic. A combination that seafood lovers in particular will find deeply satisfying and that shows the extraordinary range of Thai prawn cookery available across a single meal at Sireeya’s.
🥗 Beef in Oyster Sauce
A pairing that introduces one of the most deeply savoury and satisfying mains on the menu after one of the lightest and most delicate starters. Beef in Oyster Sauce — tender sliced beef stir-fried with sweet peppers, mushrooms and onion in a rich oyster sauce with garlic, fish sauce and crispy fried garlic — provides a bold, umami-rich main course that contrasts completely with the clean, golden crispiness of the Tempura Prawns. The transition from delicate seafood starter to rich, savoury beef main is one of the most satisfying flavour journeys available across the entire menu — and the crispy fried garlic finish on the beef echoes the golden crunch of the prawn coating in a way that makes the two dishes feel quietly connected despite their differences.
