Answer 1

you may peel them all the way or just leaving the tail on.Fry at 350 degrees.splitting them down the middle,but not all the way through,just to make them lie flat or whats called buttfly them. makes them look fancier.

Answer 2

The deep fryer for almost all your frying needs should be set at 350 degree Fahrenheit.

Now, coming to time it takes to fry. If you buy pre-breaded frozen shrimp (20 to 24 count), it will take about 3 to 4 minutes.

If you are going to prepare a batter, and fry them, I will do it in two steps. I will fry them in small batches for 2 minutes per batch. Let them cool off. Now, re-fry them just before service. It will make the batter taste crunchier.

By the way, the frozen battered shrimp is pre-fried. They just fry for 3 minutes before service.

Answer 3

you peel them and oil must be at least 350 degrees

Answer 4

First don't fry them until tomorrow. Use a beer batter, peel and fry at 350 degrees.

Answer 5

Imagine what they would be like if you crumbed them with their shells...crunch h**l!!

Shrimps:- Fried

Fresh shrimp (no heads)

Fresh eggs

Bread crumbs

Cooking oil

Salt

Peel, de-head, de-vein and wash the shrimp in cold water. Lightly salt them. Put well stirred eggs into a bowl. Dip the shrimp in the eggs. Drain the excess egg off for a few seconds and place them in the bread crumbs. Make sure they are well covered with the crumbs.

For best results refrigerate the battered shrimp for about an hour. Deep fry at 350 degrees until they rise to the top (1½ - 3 minutes) or until golden brown.

I like to leave the tail tips on to use as a handle.
