How to Make Delicious Crispy Fried Shrimp
## A Step-by-Step Guide to Making Crispy Fried Shrimp
**Step 1: Prepare and Marinate the Shrimp**
After purchasing the large shrimp, rinse them thoroughly. Peel the shrimp, leaving the tail and head intact for a more attractive presentation. To remove the vein, cut along the back of the shrimp and pull out the black thread. Rinse the shrimp with salted water to eliminate any fishy odor and enhance the crispness of the meat.
Season the shrimp with 1 teaspoon each of MSG and seasoning powder, a pinch of pepper, half a teaspoon of salt, and half a teaspoon of chili powder. Mix well to ensure the shrimp absorbs the flavors.
**Step 2: Prepare the Batter**
Beat the eggs in a separate bowl. Place the crispy batter and panko breadcrumbs in two separate dishes.
Coat each shrimp with the crispy batter, followed by a dip in the egg, and finally, a generous coating of panko breadcrumbs for that extra crunch.

**Step 3: Fry the Shrimp**
Heat oil in a pan over low heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the shrimp. After adding all the shrimp, adjust the heat to medium.
To prevent burning, fry the shrimp in batches if necessary, ensuring the oil is at a gentle simmer. Fry until the batter turns crisp, then flip the shrimp to achieve an even golden color. The shrimp are done when they turn a deep amber color. Remove from the oil and drain on a wire rack.
**Step 4: Serve and Enjoy**
The crispy fried shrimp will have a beautiful golden-brown exterior with a crunchy texture and juicy, naturally sweet meat inside.
Serve hot with fresh herbs, cucumber, and tomato, accompanied by chili and ketchup on the side to enhance the flavors. This dish is best enjoyed hot for the ultimate sensory experience.
