How to Make Batter For Sweet And Sour Shrimp
- In a medium bowl, whisk together all batter ingredients until just combined. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes to allow the gluten to relax, resulting in a crispier coating.
- Gently dip each shrimp into the batter, ensuring it's fully coated. Gently shake off any excess batter to avoid overly thick, heavy coating.
- Heat your oil to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the battered shrimp to the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry in batches for 5-6 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove the shrimp from the oil and place them on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
- To keep the shrimp warm and crispy, place them in a 200°F (95°C) oven until ready to serve.
