It's actually quite dumb to bread beautiful jumbo shrimp... that's
like those moronic recipes that call for grinding/chopping jumbo
shrimp when small shrimp will do ... no kudos for being a kitchen
jerk.

Your posts will be easier to understand if you get OE Quotefix to
handle the problem of properly marked quotes when replying to Google
Groups posts.

Actually I'm using OE Quotefix it just didn't work for some reason with that
particular post.

It does seem a waste to bread good jumbo shrimp. It certainly not my favourite
way to do shrimp. However, I am tempted to try my hand at coconut shrimp.

It isn't the only way I eat them but is one of my favorite ways. Out of the
3 lbs I had of these this was the last pound as the other two pounds where
grilled.

Here is the basic recipe if you are interested:

Coconut Shrimp

Peanut or vegetable oil, for frying
1/4 cup cornstarch
*1/2 cup Panko bread crumbs ( I use the honey flavored) - optional mixed
with coconut flakes
1 large egg beaten
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup flaked coconut - ( if mixed with panko use a 1/2 cup)
1 pounds jumbo shrimp, peeled with tails on


Heat oil in a large deep skillet, or heavy pot or deep fryer to 350 degrees
F.

Dredge the shrimp with the cornstarch then the egg mixture and shake off any
excess. Press the shrimp into the coconut flakes (or coconut mixed with
panko) be sure to coat both sides.

Deep-fry the shrimp in batches until the coconut is golden brown, about 2 to
3 minutes. Using tongs or a slotted spoon, remove the shrimp to paper towels
to drain.

Orange Dipping Sauce
1/2 cup orange marmalade
1 to 2 tablespoons dark rum
1 lime, juiced

Mix all ingredients in a bowl and use for dipping.

Thanks. I will print that up and try it. But I may try the sauce that a local
restaurant used to do with marmalade, balsamic vinegar and a bit of mustard
powder. I go the ingredients from him when I pointed out there was something
different in the sauce, maybe mustard.. I tired it once and it was pretty good.

I have used several sauces with this Dave as well as one similar with
marmalade, mustard and balsamic. I have a rather large collection of sauces
saved with a few that would be good with this. I just listed the one in the
picture at the time it was taken.

A mild curry sauce works very well too!
