Ingredients:
1 pound of medium size shrimp
½ tsp of salt
½ tsp of pepper
Batter
5 tbsp of flour
2 tbsp of cornstarch
1 egg
½ tsp of salt
½ tsp of pepper
½ tsp of baking powder
1 small handful of cilantro – chopped
2 spring onions – chopped
1 cup of water – more or less
2. Mix all the ingredients for the batter, add in the water slowly and mix it until it’s thick and smooth. (I used about 1 cup)
3. Heat up oil to medium heat, hold the tail of the shrimp and dip in batter. Deep fry for 2 min or until golden brown.
4. Remove shrimp on a paper towel to absorb the oil. Serve with chili sauce and any kind of dipping sauce of your choice.
