Preparation

  • Butterfly the shrimp and pat them dry.

  • In a mixing bowl, mix all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, McCormick Himalayan Pink Salt, McCormick Garlic Powder, and McCormick Onion Powder. Stir in iced water to form a batter.

  • Dip the shrimp in the batter and coat them up to but not including the tail shells. The small portion of shell/tail should be exposed to crisp up in the frying oil.

  • Dredge the battered shrimp in coconut flakes. Lightly press the coconut into the shrimp until well-coated. Shake off any excess.

  • In deep pot, heat oil to approximately 160°C. Hold the shrimp by their tails and lower into the oil. Fry in small batches for about 2 minutes until golden brown. Sprinkle with more Himalayan Pink Salt and serve immediately with plum sauce or sweet chilli sauce.
