Begin with the mayo: blend the mango and chilli together until smooth, then stir into the mayonnaise, season and add a squeeze of lime to taste.
Stir the coconut and breadcrumbs together, then gradually add the oil, using your fingertips to rub the crumbs until evenly coated without clumping.
In a separate bowl, mix the flour and paprika and season.
Heat the air fryer to 200C.
Dip the prawns into the seasoned flour, then the beaten egg and finally the coconut crumbs.
Shake off any excess and cook directly in the air fryer basket for 6-8 mins, turning halfway, until crunchy and lightly golden.
Serve with the mayo and extra lime wedges.
