Salt and Pepper Shrimp - Popcorn Shrimp

Ingredients

1 lb / ½ kg raw shrimp peeled and deveined

1 cup oil for deep frying

½ cup potato flour

½ teaspoon white pepper

½ teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon salt

2 green onions chopped

1 red chilli pepper finely sliced

2 garlic cloves minced

salt and pepper

Instructions

Heat oil in a wok or a deep fryer on high heat.

Mix together potato flour, white and black pepper and salt in a plate or small bowl. Lightly toss about 10 shrimp in the potato flour mixture, shaking off any excess. Repeat tossing shrimp as you continue to fry in batches.

Cook the shrimp carefully in the hot oil, until it's pink in colour (about 3-5 minutes). Remove and allow to drain on paper towel on a plate. *Optional - keep the shrimp on a baking tray in the oven to keep warm in between cooking batches.

Put about 1-2 tablespoons oil in a wok over medium high heat. Flash fry green onion, red chilli peppers, and garlic cloves for no more than 2 minutes. Add the shrimp into the onion mixture and mix together. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
