Sesame shrimp
Sesame shrimp is a delicious dish typically made with shrimp that are marinated and then coated in a mixture of sesame seeds and other flavorful ingredients. The shrimp are usually pan-fried or deep-fried until crispy and golden.
Ingredients
- 1 pound shrimp peeled and deveined
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1/4 cup sesame seeds
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon ginger powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 eggs beaten
- Vegetable oil for frying
- green onions chopped and sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, sesame seeds, garlic powder, ginger powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
- Dip each shrimp into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off.
- Coat each shrimp with the flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure it sticks to the shrimp. Set aside on a plate.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot to about 350°F (175°C).
- Carefully add the coated shrimp to the hot oil, a few at a time, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
- Fry the shrimp for approximately 2-3 minutes per side, or until they turn golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the cooked shrimp from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
- Repeat the frying process until all the shrimp are cooked.
- Optional: Garnish the sesame shrimp with chopped green onions and extra sesame seeds for added flavor and presentation.
