  • I really like the ratios on this one. The cook time and temperature make for a great crispy yet tender bite. Give it a try!

    FRIED SHRIMP
    2 lbs Fresh Shrimp
    1 Gallon of Cooking Oil
    2 Tablespoon of Mustard
    2 Tablespoon of Hot Sauce
    2 Eggs
    2 Cups of Flour
    2 Tablespoons of Cajun Seasoning
    1/2 Tablespoon of Salt
    1/2 Tablespoon of Garlic Powder
    Peel and De-vein roughly 2 pounds of fresh shrimp.
    Heat roughly a gallon of oil on a medium/low heat.
    You’ll eventually want to reach 425°.
    Monitor the heat every so often with a thermometer.
    While the oil is heating up, add the mustard and hot sauce to the shrimp.
    Mix thoroughly and let it sit in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
    When the oil gets to around 425°, you can put your heat to a low setting.
    Maintain until ready to fry.
    With about 10 minutes left on the shrimp, scramble two eggs.
    Add the eggs to the shrimp.
    Mix together the flour, cajun seasoning, salt, and garlic powder.
    When you know your oil is around 425° and you are ready to fry, that is when you mix your shrimp in with your seasoned flour.
    Add a few shrimp at a time to the flour, so that some of the excess marinade can drip off.
    Immediately after battering the shrimp, that is when you want to drop them in the fryer. Quickness is optimal for a nice crispy texture.
    Fry the shrimp for two minutes, and then remove.
    Let the excess oil drip, then pour the shrimp into a pan that’s layered with paper towels.
    Season with a little bit of salt if you like, but it’s completely optional.
    Let them cool a bit and enjoy!

    @Cajun Ninja The next time that you fry up some shrimp, try using Aunt Jemima Pancake Flour instead of APF. It gives your shrimp just a small hint of sweetness. My Cajun Daddy and his parents, as well as all of the other family members have used the Aunt Jemima Pancake Flour. Now we don't use your mustard and hot sauce marinade, but we do use all of the other spices that you used, as well as a little bit of onion powder. Mmmmmm..... you've got me thinking about fried shrimp for dinner tonight!
