3 teaspoons paprika
3-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 egg, slightly beaten
3 cups cold water

1 cup flour, sifted

Blot shrimp dry with paper towels and set aside. Heat several inches of

the baking powder, salt and paprika into the flour. Whisk in the egg and
water, blending well. Combine the dredging mixture in a shallow dish. Hold
shrimp by the tail, dredge, dip in batter and slip into hot oil. Fry a few
at a time just until batter is golden. Drain on paper towels. Serve hot.
