Ingredients
- 200 g shrimp
- 30 g almond flour tempura
- 1 (juiced) lemon
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 tsp salt
Method
- Peel and devein the shrimp, then season them with salt and the juice of 1 lemon, allowing them to marinate for 5 minutes.
- Mince the 3 garlic cloves finely and stir them into the almond flour tempura to create a fragrant, keto-friendly coating batter.
- Heat a generous amount of oil in a deep pan over high heat until it reaches approximately 180°C (350°F), which should take about 4 minutes.
- Dredge each marinated shrimp thoroughly in the almond flour tempura mixture, ensuring an even coating on all sides.
- Working in small batches, carefully lower the coated shrimp into the hot oil and fry for 2 to 3 minutes per batch until the batter turns golden and crisp.
- Remove the shrimp with a slotted spoon and drain them on paper towels to eliminate excess oil before serving.
