Needed.

a laptop with spotify and and internet connection
4 egg whites

Game.
Step 1. Invite sexy woman for day 2 at your place.
Step 2. Open bottle of Kiwi sauvignon blanc
Step 3. make sure good upbeat music is playing thru spotify. Motown is good in this situation.
Step 4. Whisk the egg whites until they are light and fluffy. Put the flour and coconut on to two separate plates. Heat a deep pan or wok and add the oil. While the oil is heating, toss one of the prawns into the flour, dip it into the egg white and then roll it in the coconut. Set it aside. Repeat the process with the remaining prawns.
Once the oil has reached frying point, carefully lower the prawns into the oil in batches of five. When the coconut has turned light brown on one side, turn the prawns over and cook until they are crisply golden on both sides. Remove the prawns and drain on paper towels.
Mix Thai sweet chilli sauce, Plum sauce and lime for dipping, and lemon quarters for squeezing.
Serve with french bread and a Italian salad of Rocket, sun blushed tomatoes and flaked gran padano cheese. Dress with Spanish Extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
Step 5. Regail her with interesting stories… example :
- The time the stripper you were dating ran into trouble and you had to rescue her, 17 children and a family of chinchillas from a burning building
- The Time back in ‘Nam when your platoon was wiped out and you had to defeat the entire Viet Cong armed only with a butter knife and some colorful language.
- The time when you talked Nelson Mandela back off that ledge when he was about to jump.
- The time When P-diddy requested your help to organise a party.
- or the one about those songs you wrote when you were a kid, that some long haired hippy stole from you, and released it as Sgt. Pepper’s
Step 6. invite to watch a crappy art house film in your room.
Points are awarded if its the type of film that everyone pretends to like in a vein attempt not to look stupid, but no-one actually enjoys.
I.e
City of God
Pan’s Labryinth
Cinema Paradiso
or anything by Jim Jarmusch.
Step 7. remove pants…. her’s… your’s… whatever.
