Camaron Rebosado
Report
Camaron Rebosado is a Filipino-style crispy breaded shrimp quite similar to Japanese shrimp tempura. It is made of marinated shrimp or prawns dipped in a lightly seasoned batter and deep-fried until golden and crunchy! Usually served with a sweet and sour sauce, it makes a great appetizer or main dish paired with steamed rice.

Instructions
- Season the shrimp with salt and lemon juice and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- Heat enough oil for deep frying, about 2-3 inches, in a small pot or deep pan/ saucepan over medium heat.
- While oil is heating up, sift together the flour, cornstarch, and baking powder in a bowl. Add the salt and ground pepper and mix.
- Add the egg and cold water and whisk into a smooth batter.
- Take a prawn by the tail and dredge it in cornstarch covering both sides then dip it in the batter and then deep fry in the hot oil. Deep fry 3-4 pieces at a time turning them several times using a slotted spoon to achieve even cooking. Cook until golden brown.
- Transfer cooked prawns to a paper towel or oil draining rack to remove excess oil.
- Arrange on a serving dish and serve while hot and crispy with sweet chili sauce.
