Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes     Shrimp Recipes

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
3/4 cup plain dried breadcrumbs
2 large egg whites
1 1/2 pounds medium shrimp, peeled and deveined (tail on)
Coarse salt and ground pepper
4 cups vegetable oil
Bottled sweet-and-sour sauce, for serving
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon curry powder, preferably Madras
Lime wedges, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • For the kids: In a food processor, pulse together coconut and breadcrumbs until coconut is in small pieces; transfer to a shallow bowl, and scatter a handful over a baking sheet. Set aside. In another shallow bowl, lightly beat the egg whites.
  • Toss shrimp with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Working in batches, dip shrimp in egg whites to coat completely; lift from whites (shaking off any excess), and dredge in coconut mixture. Lay on prepared baking sheet.
  • In a large, deep heavy-bottom pan, heat oil over medium heat until 350 degrees on a deep-fry thermometer. Cook half the shrimp, lightly shaking to separate shrimp, until golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer shrimp to paper towels to drain. Return oil to 350 degrees; repeat with remaining shrimp.
  • Reserve half the shrimp for the adults. Serve remaining shrimp with sweet-and-sour sauce.
  • For the adults: In a small bowl, whisk together yogurt, lime juice, mustard, and curry powder. Serve the sauce with reserved shrimp; garnish with lime wedges, if desired.

CRISP CURRIED SHRIMP



Crisp Curried Shrimp image

Categories     Onion     Sauté     Quick & Easy     Shrimp     Curry     Gourmet

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3/4 pound large shrimp (about 12), shelled and deveined
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 bunch scallions, cut into 2-inch lengths
Accompaniment: lemon wedges

Steps:

  • In a bowl stir together flour, curry powder, cayenne, and salt to taste. Add shrimp to flour mixture, tossing to coat.
  • In a large heavy skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté scallions until well browned and almost tender.
  • Add shrimp to scallions and sauté, stirring occasionally, about 4 minutes, or until shrimp are opaque throughout.
  • Serve shrimp with lemon.

Tips:

  • To make sure the shrimp is crispy, pat it dry with paper towels before coating it in the breading.
  • Use a light hand when breading the shrimp. Too much breading will make it soggy.
  • Heat the oil to the correct temperature before adding the shrimp. If the oil is not hot enough, the shrimp will absorb too much oil and become greasy.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when frying the shrimp. This will cause the oil temperature to drop and the shrimp will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the shrimp until it is golden brown and crispy. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and chewy.

Conclusion:

Crispy curried coconut shrimp is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. It is perfect for a party or a weeknight dinner. Serve it with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet and sour sauce or mango chutney.
