Using kitchen shears, cut along the backs of prawns through shells and just deep enough to expose veins; remove veins. Pat prawns dry. Whisk cornflour, black pepper, and 3/4 teaspoons salt in a large bowl; add prawns and toss to coat.

Heat oil in a large skillet over mediumhigh heat. Working in 2 batches, fry prawns until golden, crisp, and cooked through, about 1 minute per side. Transfer to paper towels and let drain, then toss in a medium bowl with Sichuan peppercorns and remaining 3/4 teaspoons salt. Add chilli and coriander to bowl and toss to combine.
