Japanese-style deep-fried shrimp, also known as "ebi fry" (エビフライ),
is a beloved dish in Japanese cuisine that showcases the perfect combination of crispy texture and succulent seafood flavor.
This dish is made by coating fresh, plump shrimp in a layer of flour, dipping them into beaten eggs, and then rolling them in panko breadcrumbs to create a light,
airy, and crunchy exterior. The shrimp are then deep-fried to golden perfection, resulting in a dish that is both visually appealing and irresistibly delicious.
Ingredients:
- 1 pound medium shrimp, peeled (tails left on) and deveined
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 cup panko crumbs
- 1 quart vegetable oil for frying
Instructions:
Place the shrimp in a bowl and season with salt, pepper and garlic powder. In a small bowl, stir together the flour and paprika. Place eggs and panko crumbs into separate bowls.
Heat the oil in a deep-fryer or deep skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Dip each shrimp into the flour mixture, then into the egg, and finally into the panko crumbs to coat. Fry a few at a time until golden brown. This should take no longer than 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels before serving.
