I've guessed on cook time here. These are the crunchiest shrimp I've had outside of a restaurant! This makes alot, but if you are going to make these you may as well go all out!! Everyone loves them! These have received so many mixed reviews that I thought maybe I should mention that I deep fry them in a Presto Fry Daddy and not very many at a time. I never said they were easy...and I get better each time I do it. Thanks for giving them so much attention! Ingredients:
2 lbs peeled jumbo shrimp |
crisco shortening, melted in deep fryer (till full by manufacturer standards) |
2/3 cup flour |
1 1/3 cups cornstarch |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
6 egg whites |
2/3 cup water |
4 tablespoons vegetable oil |
corn flake crumbs |
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, stir flour, cornstarch, salt, baking powder, egg whites, water and oil together with a whisk.
2. Pour out a liberal amount of cornflake crumbs on a dinner plate.
3. Roll each shrimp well into batter mixture and quickly roll in cornflake crumbs.
4. Deep fry shrimp about 7 at a time till golden brown.
5. Drain on paper towels.
6. Serve with cocktail and/or tartar sauce.
