Equipment
Electric mixer, Medium bowl, Small bowl, Deep pot or deep fryer, Shallow bowl, Paper towels
Ingredients
- 8 fluid ounces flat beer
- 1 cup self-rising flour
- 2 cups sweetened flaked coconut, divided (one 7-ounce package)
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt substitute
- 12 jumbo shrimp
- vegetable oil (for frying)
- paprika
- 1/2 cup orange marmalade
- 2 teaspoons stone ground mustard
- 1 teaspoon prepared horseradish
- 1 dash salt
Instructions
---To Make the Dipping Sauce---.
Combine all marmalade dipping sauce ingredients in a small bowl and refrigerate for at least one hour.
---To Make the Batter---.
Use an electric mixer to combine the beer, flour, ½ cup of the coconut flakes, sugar and salt in medium bowl.
Mix well, then cover and refrigerate for at least one hour.
---To Prepare the Shrimp---.
De-vein and peel off the shell back to the tail.
Leave the last segment of the shell plus the tail as a handle.
When the batter is ready, preheat oil in a deep pot or deep fryer to about 350°F.
Use enough oil to cover the shrimp completely.
Pour the remainder of the coconut into a shallow bowl.
Be sure the shrimp are dry before battering.
Sprinkle each shrimp lightly with paprika before the next step.
Dip one shrimp at a time into the batter, coating generously.
Drop the battered shrimp into the coconut and roll it around so that it is well coated.
Deep-fry four shrimp at a time for 2 to 3 minutes or until the shrimp become golden brown.
Flip the shrimp halfway through.
Drain on paper towels briefly before serving with marmalade sauce on the side.
