For the sweet chile aioli:
1 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon white miso (also called shiro miso)
Juice of 1/2 lime
1 tablespoon sambal ulek
2 tablespoons Thai sweet chile sauce
2 teaspoons fresh cilantro, finely chopped
For the apple slaw:
1 medium Fuji apple, peeled, cored, and cut into julienne
1 celery heart, stalks cut crosswise into 1-inch pieces then cut into julienne, and tender leaves, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup micro greens such as arugula, coarsely chopped
Juice of 1/2 lime
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
For the shrimp:
About 10 cups vegetable oil
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
16 ounces Asahi Super Dry Beer
3 cups tempura mix*
1/2 pound fresh rock shrimp, peeled and deveined
*Available at Asian markets or in the Asian section of the supermarket
Special Equipment
Deep-fat thermometer

Steps:

  • Make the sweet chile aioli:
  • In a small bowl, whisk together all of the aioli ingredients. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and chill.
  • Make the apple slaw:
  • In a small bowl, toss together all of the slaw ingredients, cover, and keep chilled until ready to serve.
  • Batter and fry the shrimp:
  • Line a baking sheet with 2 layers of paper towels.
  • In a heavy large pot, heat 3 inches of oil until a deep-fat thermometer registers 350°F.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and pepper.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together beer and tempura mix-the mixture should be about as thick as pancake batter.
  • Lightly coat the shrimp in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess, then dip in the tempura batter. Working in batches, fry the shrimp until light golden brown, about 3 minutes per batch. Transfer as done to the prepared baking sheet and return oil to 350°F between batches.
  • Transfer the fried shrimp to a small bowl, add sweet chile aioli, and gently toss to coat.
  • To serve:
  • Divide the apple slaw among 6 small appetizer plates. Arrange about 6 shrimp on each plate and serve immediately.
