Mix the flour, chickpea flour, salt, black pepper, and paprika.
Add the cold water gradually and make a pourable batter.
Fold the prawns, finely chopped scallions, and parsley into the batter.
Heat the oil in a wide pan to 175°C.
Pour in thin ladles of batter and fry for 2 minutes on each side, until crisp.
Transfer the fried pieces to paper towels.
Serve hot with lemon wedges.
💡 Tip: Keeping the batter thin makes the tortillitas lace-like and crisp instead of thick fritters.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve hot with lemon wedges, aioli, and a cold tomato salad.
