Japanese Fried Shrimp

Crispy Golden Fried Shrimp is a mouthwatering dish that combines succulent shrimp with a perfectly crunchy coating. Fresh shrimp are peeled, deveined, and lightly scored to ensure they stay straight and tender. Marinated in fragrant yellow wine and salt, they absorb rich flavor before being coated in starch, dipped in egg, and rolled in golden breadcrumbs for an irresistible crunch. Hand-pressing the breadcrumbs ensures an even, crispy texture when fried to perfection. Each bite delivers a satisfying contrast between the juicy shrimp and the light, golden crust. Quick to prepare yet impressive in taste and presentation, this dish is perfect as an appetizer or main course. The subtle hint of yellow wine elevates the natural sweetness of the shrimp, making it a standout recipe for seafood lovers. Serve hot for a delightful crunch in every bite!
