Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 After the shrimps are defrosted naturally, wash them and remove the shrimp lines (some high-quality single-frozen shrimps have already removed the shrimp lines, but you still need to check to remove the residue);

   

2. 2 Add salt and cooking wine, put on disposable gloves, "massage" the shrimps (grab them evenly), and marinate for 5 minutes;

   

3. 3 Add an egg, flour, and dry starch; add 1 tablespoon each first, and adjust as appropriate;

   

4. 4 Continue to "massage" for a longer time until you feel the shrimp is sticky and evenly coated with a thin layer of paste. You can also adjust the consistency of the paste during this process: if it’s too dry, you can add a little water; if it’s too thin, you can add a little powder;

   

5. 5 The state after hanging. The batter should not be too thick, otherwise the fried shrimp pastry will be too thick and not tasty. After battering, let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes to let the shrimps "rest";

   

6. 6 Heat the oil pot over medium heat, add cold oil to the hot pot, and heat it for a while. Use chopsticks to test the oil temperature: Put clean and water-free chopsticks into the pot. If small bubbles appear around the chopsticks and the speed is slow, it means the oil temperature is not enough; if the bubbles are large and pop up quickly, and there is a quick "crackling" sound, it means the oil temperature is high; if the bubbles around the chopsticks are even in size, pop up quickly, and the oil pops gently, it means the oil temperature is just right;

   

7. 7 Quickly add the shrimps individually, one at a time - to ensure that they do not stick to each other, quickly - to ensure that the maturity is consistent;

   

8. 8 After everything is put in, turn it over immediately. When the frying color is golden and light, turn on high heat and fry for a few seconds, and at the same time, turn it over quickly;

   

9. 9 This is definitely golden brown, take it out immediately and drain off the grease;

   

10. 10 Place on absorbent paper to absorb excess grease, plate and serve.

    

11. 11 Serve with salt and pepper.
