Recipe Introduction
This is a tasty treat. This is one of my favorite ways in frying shrimp. Don't forget the sauce.
List of Ingredients
1 lb Medium - Large Fresh Shrimp (cleaned,shelled, and butterflied)
2 Eggs
1/4 cup Water
2/3 cup Corn Starch
7 ounces Package of Premium Flaked Coconut (small flake if possible)
1 Tablespoon Sugar
1 teaspoon Salt
1/2 cup Flour
Pineapple Dipping Sauce:
1 (8 oz.) Can Crushed Pineapple Natural Juice (do not drain, add
juice)
1/2 C. Sugar
1/4 C. Red Plum Preserves
1/2 C. Sweet and Sour Sauce ( the yellow type not the red sauce, we
used Kraft Sweet and Sour Sauce)
Recipe
Mix eggs and water. Set aside.
Place 1/3 cup of corn starch in bowl for dusting of shrimp.
Mix in separate bowl 1/3 cup (the remainder) of corn starch, coconut, sugar, salt, and flour, blend well.
Heat oil for deep frying. Roll shrimp in corn starch, then in egg wash, then finally roll in coconut mixture. Place shrimp in hot oil and deep fry until done. Shrimp will float to the top when cooked. Take care not to overcook shrimp.
*Serve with Crab Shack Pineapple dipping sauce. Yumm Yumm.
The results to be slightly better when you process the coconut in a blender for a few seconds. It will grate up the coconut just a bit more.
Serving Size: 4
Pineapple Dipping Sauce:
Place all in a sauce pan and simmer on medium low to low heat for 20 - 25 minutes stirring frequently until mixture thickens slightly.
This sauce goes well with Chicken Nuggets, too
