Categories     Shellfish

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients:
3/4 lb raw tiger shrimp, peeled and cut into chunks
2 green onions, thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 cups water
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 eggs
spicy honey drizzle recipe found here
vegetable oil for frying

Steps:

  • Directions: 1. Preheat oil to 350°F. 2. Place shrimp, green onions and garlic into a large mixing bowl and toss together. Set Aside. 3. Pour water into medium pot and add butter and salt and bring to a boil. 4. Once mixture has come to a boil, add flour and quickly stir with a wooden spoon, until dough forms. Continue to stir over medium heat, for about 3 minutes. 5. Place dough into a stand mixer fixed with a paddle attachment and run on medium speed, allowing steam to escape. 6. Once most of the steam has disappeared add the egg, one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition. 7. Fold pepper into the pate a choux (the doughy/battery mixture). 8. Fold the shrimp mixture into the pate a choux until fully incorporated. 9. Once oil is hot, add tablespoon sized balls of the shrimp mixture into the oil (you'll have to do this in batches); make sure not to crowd the pan/fryer. 10. Fry each fritter for 4 to 6 minutes, flipping halfway if necessary. Drain on a paper towel and season lightly with salt. Serve immediately with spicy honey drizzle.
