Add a little at a time about 200 gr of very cold sparkling water and stir gently with a whisk until you get a fairly liquid batter.
Put in the fridge to rest.
In the meantime, clean and wash the vegetables carefully and cut them in order to obtain sticks of about 3 mm per side and about 8 cm long.
Dry.
Remove the carapace from the prawns and leave the tail, gently incise along the back with a small knife and remove the gut (another way without cutting along the back: halfway up the shrimp put a toothpick or similar at the gut and remove it gently).
Put the oil in a pan not so high and wide, it must be very hot (about 180°C).

Put a few pieces at a time not to lower the temperature of the oil, check the cooking and as soon as the batter takes a golden color drain and pass on kitchen paper to remove excess oil, salt and serve immediately.
