Instructions
- Peel the shrimp, but leave the tail on. Heat the oil up in a deep skillet or pot until it reaches 350°F.
- Combine corn starch with salt. Toss the shrimp in cornstarch and salt.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the egg with water. Next, whisk in the flour until the batter is light and fluffy.
- Dip the shrimps into the batter and place into the skillet and fry until lightly golden brown. Note: only fry a handful a time so they cook evenly and don't stick.
- Remove the shrimp from the oil and place on a paper towel to drain the tempura shrimp of any excess grease. Enjoy alongside your favorite dipping sauce!
