Default Experimenting with fried prawns in olive oil

As a complete novice to cooking, I decided to experiment with extra
virgin olive oil and prawns this evening.
First I discovered that the extra virgin olive oil had frozen in my
fridge. When I finally managed to warm it sufficiently to fry prawns
with, I found that 3 minutes seems to be the minimum time after which
they develop a pleasant flavour and a nice golden colour after 5
minutes they begin to taste bland and oily.

I'm beginning to think when they have a golden colour is just right.

How do the experts fry them?
