Recipe instructions

Preparing the Shrimps

  1. Shrimp – remove heads, shells and, most importantly, the thread.

  2. Wash the shrimp and pat dry.

  3. In a bowl, combine the marinade ingredients: lime juice, garlic, chili flakes, salt, and pepper. Marinate the shrimp for at least 15 minutes.

Breading

  1. Prepare three plates: one with flour, one with beaten egg, and one with Panko breadcrumbs.

  2. Bread each shrimp in the following order:

    • Coat in flour, shaking off excess.

    • Dip in egg.

    • Coat thoroughly in Panko, pressing the coating down.

Frying

  1. Heat the oil in a tall pot to about 170 degrees

  2. Fry the shrimp in batches (don't add too many at once) for about 2-3 minutes, until they turn a beautiful golden color.

  3. Remove the fried shrimp and pat dry on a paper towel to remove excess fat.

Sauce and Serving

  1. In a small bowl, combine the chili sauce, lime juice, and chopped fresh chili pepper. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, if desired.

  2. Arrange the shrimp on a plate. Garnish with lime wedges and fresh vegetables (e.g., thin sticks of leek or celery, as shown in the photo).

  3. Serve immediately hot with sauce in a small bowl.

 

Chef's Tip: To ensure the shrimp are perfectly straight after frying (as pictured), gently score the shrimp bellies after cleaning but before breading.
