COCONUT SHRIMPS
Well, there is nothing more pleasant than to spend these days of very hot accompanied by some cold beers and what better aperitif than to taste the aromatic and tasty "Shrimp". You may notice that it is a fairly simple recipe, which can be prepared in a matter of minutes, besides it does not need many ingredients.
Below I show you how to prepare this delicious species of the sea, combining flavor with a rich tropical fruit coconut:
Ingredients:
• 1 kilogram of fresh shrimp.
• 1 egg.
• 1 cup of grated coconut.
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch.
• 1 tablespoon of pepper.
• 1 tablespoon of salt.
• 1 tablespoon ground garlic.
• 1 splash of olive oil.
Preparation process:
• Start by peeling the shrimp, removing the intestinal vein and leaving only the tail. Then season with garlic, salt and pepper to taste.
• In a separate container beat the egg and cornstarch. Then each shrimp is dipped in the egg and cornstarch mixture, then passed through the grated coconut. With the help of your hands you should try to make the coconut stick well. Later these crustaceans are placed on a tray with vegetable paper.
• Then sprinkle the shrimp with a little olive oil so that they are crispy. Then they are placed in the preheated oven at 200 ° C for approximately 15 minutes or until they are golden brown. You can also prepare fried, in this case I baked them because they provide less calories, it's just a matter of taste.
• Once that time has passed they are ready to taste accompanied by your favorite sauce.
Do not stay with the desire to try this magnificent dish. The truth is that their crunchy and juicy flavor will leave them enchanted, and the best thing is that in a matter of minutes they will have this appetizer ready that could undoubtedly get them out of trouble in any unforeseen compromise. I just hope you like them and enjoy them. Greetings.
