Ingredients
- 20 large shrimp or prawns (shell removed)
- 4 eggs (whisked)
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 cup flour
- 1 tbsp pepper
- 1 tbsp salt
- 2 cup shredded coconut flakes (sweetened)
Directions
Gather three bowls. In one mix the flour, salt and pepper. In the second, whisk the eggs. In the third, combine the coconut and the panko.
Put the oil in a large pot and heat until the temperature reaches 350 degrees.
Take your shrimp and dredge them in the flour mixture first, then move them one at a time to the egg mixture and then the coconut/breadcrumb mixture.
Fry only five shrimp at a time in the oil by gently placing them in the pot and cooking them for 2-3 minutes.
Remove from the oil and let cook on a rack for a minute, then enjoy!
