Burmese Fried Shrimp Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the cornstarch and flour in one bowl, then beat the eggs and 1/2 cup water in a second bowl. In a third bowl, combine the panko and seasoned breadcrumbs. Bread the shrimp by dipping them first in the flour mix, then the egg wash, then the breadcrumbs.
• Heat about 1/2 inch of oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat to 350 degrees F.
• Fry the shrimp in batches until golden and crispy, approximately 2 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate and season with salt and pepper. Serve with Cocktail Sauce.
• Stir together the ketchup and horseradish in a bowl. Chill until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Heat oil in large skillet or wok. Add onion, garlic and ginger and stir-fry until lightly browned. Add tomatoes, curry powder, garam masala, tamarind powder or paste, turmeric and paprika. Cook over medium heat till tomatoes begin to soften; stir in shrimp, peppers, fish sauce and 2 tablespoons cilantro.
• Increase heat slightly and stir-fry shrimp about 3 minutes, until they turn opaque. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently until shrimp are cooked through, 5 to 10 minutes depending on size. If sauce is too thick, add 2 or 3 tablespoons water.
• When shrimp are done, transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with the remaining tablespoon of cilantro.

Steps:

• Dust the shrimps with mixed salt, turmeric and chili powder.
• Bend shrimps into a half circle and thread on skewer through top and tail to keep this shape.
• Put four shrimps on each skewer.
• Shallow fry skewered shrimps until golden.
• Serve immediately.
