Instructions
- Peel the shrimp, leaving the tails on. Devein and rinse the shrimp. Make a few shallow vertical slits on the underside of each shrimp to prevent curling during frying. Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and set aside.
- In a bowl, combine all-purpose flour, salt, bonito flakes, egg, and milk. Whisk until well combined. Set the batter aside. If the batter is too thick, add a little more milk.
- Pour the Panko breadcrumbs onto a shallow plate. Hold the shrimp by the tail, dip it into the batter to coat evenly, then roll it in the Panko breadcrumbs. Lightly press the breadcrumbs onto the shrimp to ensure an even coating. Repeat the process for the remaining shrimp.
- Fill a deep pot with vegetable oil and heat it to 340°F to 360°F (170°C to 182°C). Deep-fry the shrimp until golden brown and crispy on both sides. Remove the shrimp with a strainer and drain them on a plate lined with paper towels.
- Prepare the dipping sauce by cutting the hard-boiled egg into small cubes and mixing it with chopped onion and Japanese mayonnaise in a bowl. Season with salt and ground black pepper to taste. Enjoy the shrimp hot with the cold dipping sauce immediately.
