Ingredients
- 1 lb Shrimp jumbo size
- 2 cups vegetable oil or any neutral oil
- ¼ teaspoon dried parsley flakes optional garnish
Shrimp Batter
- ⅓ cup Potato Starch or cornstarch
- ⅓ cup cake flour or see Notes below for a substitute
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup water very cold
Shrimp Sauce
- 5 tablespoon Japanese mayo (aka Kewpie Mayo) or sub with regular mayo
- 2 tablespoon ketchup
- 5 tablespoon sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar or white vinegar/apple cider vinegar
- ½ teaspoon white granulated sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- To create our shrimp batter: In a large bowl, add potato starch, cake flour, salt and whisk together. Then pour in cold water and whisk again until combined. Set aside.
- In another large bowl, whisk together shrimp sauce ingredients until well combined. Set aside.
- If needed, peel and devein shrimp. Pat the peeled shrimp dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture and add shrimp to batter. Mix together.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large pan or large wok on medium heat. Make sure oil reaches 350 F with a digital instant read thermometer or dip a wooden utensil and look for rapid bubbles to form.
- Fry battered shrimp in small batches for 2 minutes until crispy, curled and pink, flipping over halfway through. Do not overcrowd the oil or this can cause the shrimp to not become crispy. For extra crispy shrimp, drizzle 1 teaspoon of the remaining batter over each piece of shrimp as it fries (optional).
- Remove and transfer fried shrimp onto a wire rack or a paper towel lined plate to remove excess oil to maintain its crispy texture.
- Pour the shrimp sauce over fried shrimp and gently mix. Garnish with dried parsley flakes. Enjoy immediately!
