Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 egg yolk, beaten
1 1/2 cups ice water or 1 1/2 cups very cold club soda
1 cup all-purpose flour or 1 cup rice flour
1 1/2 lbs large shrimp, peeled

Steps:

  • Heat 3-4 inches of oil in a deep, heavy pot over high heat to a temperature of 375 degrees F. (be sure to use a deep, heavy pot so there is plenty of room for the oil to bubble up - the pot should be no more than half full.).
  • Combine the egg yolk, water and flour in a mixing bowl, stirring just to combine - a few lumps are okay.
  • Butterfly the shrimp by cutting them almost all the way though along their backs.
  • Dredge the shrimp one at a time lightly in additional flour, dip in the batter, and drop carefully into the hot oil.
  • Don't add more than 5 or 6 at a time, and be careful to keep the temperature as close to 375 degrees as possible.
  • Cook until golden brown on all sides, turning in necessary, and transfer to a wire rack or paper towels to drain. Serve immediately.
