Main Street, Chelsea Michigan 48118 Phone number- 734-562-2903 Operating Hours- Tuesday-Saturday 1130 AM-10PM Sunday-1130AM-9PM Crispy Shrimp Tempura Recipe 1 lb. large shrimp peeled and deveined 1/2 10 oz package tempura batter mix Water Sesame oil for frying Instructions Begin making small slits into the inner part of each shrimp. I make about 5 slits for each shrimp. This will help stop the shrimp from curling during frying. Mix the tempura batter mix with ice-cold water according to the package. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over high heat. Pat the shrimp dry and dip them into the tempura batter. Quickly place it into the hot oil and turn once. Cook each shrimp tempura until golden in color. Remove from hot skillet and transfer to a plate lined with paper towels. Serve the shrimp tempura with low sodium soy sauce or tempura sauce. Notes TIPS Use the right oil- It’s important to use an oil with a high smoke point, so it doesn’t burn. Traditionally, tempura is fried in sesame oil. But if you don’t have any of that, then you can use sunflower, canola, or peanut for this shrimp tempura recipe. Cut slits into the shrimp- Make shallow slits into the inner part of each shrimp to prevent them from curling during the frying process. This makes them easier to eat and serve in sushi rolls.
