In a food processor, pulse mackerel and prawn until a paste forms and transfer the fish paste and minced prawn.
Combine all the ingredients and seasoning in a big mixing bowl, mash everything with a potato masher or blend it with a food processor.
Transfer the bean curd mixture onto the steaming tray, level the surface with a spatula or the back of a spoon, and press to compress.
Steam over medium heat for 20 minutes. Let it cool completely or keep in the fridge overnight.
Heat some oil in a wok. Cut the seafood bean curds into squares, coat evenly with tapioca flour, and deep-fry in hot oil until golden brown.

You can prepare the bean curd mixture a day ahead and store it in the fridge.
