Let’s get fancy! Shrimp tempura on the stick

Recipe by Sweet ZivileDifficulty: Easy

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!

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!
