# 3-Ingredient Fried Shrimp

Cuisine: chinese · Time: 25 minutes · Servings: 4

## Ingredients

- 1 lbs (450 g) shrimp (, peeled and deveined)
- 1/4 cup Shaoxing wine ((or dry sherry))
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper powder
- 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup and 1 tablespoon water
- Vegetable oil for frying
- Chopped cilantro for garnish
- Lemon wedges
- Mayonnaise
- Sriracha sauce

## Steps

1. Combine shrimp, Shaoxing wine, salt, and black pepper in a big bowl. Mix well and marinate for 5 to 10 minutes.
2. Add the flour and water. Stir to mix well. The batter should be like a pancake batter, slightly runny but thick enough to coat the shrimp. Prepare a baking tray topped with a cooling rack.
3. Heat 1/2 inch (1.5 cm) vegetable oil in large nonstick pan over medium-high heat until hot. To test the oil temperature, insert a wooden chopstick into the oil. When you see small bubbles rapidly rise around the chopstick, it’s ready for frying. Fry shrimp in 3 to 4 batches. Coat shrimp with the batter and gently place in hot oil. Cook until the bottom side turns golden brown. Flip and fry until the other side until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer the shrimp to the cooling rack.
4. Serve hot. Squeeze with lemon juice, and serve with any preferred sauces on the side.
