0.75 lb Large shrimp; shelled and
-deveined
Oil; for deep frying
=== GARNISH ===
1.00 c Tartar sauce of your choice
Parsley sprigs
Lemon wedges
Preheat fryer to 350 degrees or place enough oil in a heavy saute pan
to come half way up the side of the pan. Heat the oil until a fry
thermometer registers 350 degrees. In a large bowl place the ice
cubes, club soda, and beer, let it sit for 2 hours. Strain out any
remaining ice cubes. Place the flour and salt in a medium bowl. While
stirring gently, add enough of the beer mixture to the flour so that
a thick batter is made. You want the batter thick enough to stick to
the shrimp. Fold in the beaten egg whites. Dredge the shrimp in the
1/4 cup of flour, shaking off excess flour and dip them into the
batter. Deep fry the shrimp for 2 to 3 minutes or until crisp and
golden, drain on a towel, and serve with the tartar sauce, parsley,
and lemon wedges. This recipe yields 2 servings.
