This is very simple to make appetizer, but I always get that “WOW!” from my family and guests. It looks very impressive, but easy to make!
Let’s get fancy! Shrimp tempura on the stick
Difficulty: EasyThis is very simple to make appetizer, but I always get that “WOW!” from my family and guests. It looks very impressive, but easy to make!
Ingredients
1 lb. of pealed, deveined shrimp, can be tails on or off
Salt and pepper to taste
- For tempura batter
1/2 cup of all purpose flour
1/2 cup of corn starch
1 egg, cold
3/4 cup of ice cold water
1 tsp. of sea salt
1 tsp. of baking powder
1 tsp. of baking soda
Bamboo skewers (as many as you have shrimp, 1 per shrimp)
Oil for deep frying (any flavorless oil will work)
Let’s make it
- Put salt and pepper on the shrimp, mix.
- Mix all the tempura batter ingredients together. Don’t over mix, small clumps are fine. If you will over mix, it will be hard rather then airy.
- Skewer all the shrimp, starting from the belly part (that way looks more fancy).
- Dip each skewer (just a shrimp part) into the batter and fry dipping just a shrimp part in 350 F preheated oil until golden color.
- Serve immediately with Sweet Zivile Habanero Pepper Jelly or any other sauce of your choice.
- Enjoy!
