Method

  1. 1 Peel the shrimp, leaving the tails intact, remove the black vein, and trim the tails to drain excess water.
  2. 2 Lightly score the shrimp's belly, then bend it back to straighten the body, and season with salt and pepper.
  3. 3 Roll the shrimp in flour, dip them in egg, and then coat them completely with breadcrumbs.
  4. 4 Deep-fry at 175 degrees for 3 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  5. 5 Remove from the oil and place on paper towels to drain. Serve with shredded cabbage, mayonnaise, and lemon.
