COCONUT SHRIMP I

Steps:

• In medium bowl, combine egg, 1/2 cup flour, beer and baking powder. Place 1/4 cup flour and coconut in two separate bowls.
• Hold shrimp by tail, and dredge in flour, shaking off excess flour. Dip in egg/beer batter; allow excess to drip off. Roll shrimp in coconut, and place on a baking sheet lined with wax paper. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, heat oil to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) in a deep-fryer.
• Fry shrimp in batches: cook, turning once, for 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown. Using tongs, remove shrimp to paper towels to drain. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

TEMPURA COCONUT SHRIMP

Steps:

• 1. Pour enough oil into a deep fryer, large heavy skillet or saucepan so it's filled no more than 1/3 full. Heat on medium heat to 375°F.
• 2. Stir flour, cornstarch, egg, ginger and soda water in medium bowl until mixed. (Batter will be slightly lumpy.)
• 3. Place half of the coconut on large a plate.
• 4. Dip shrimp, a few at a time, into batter. Shake off excess. Roll in coconut.
• 5. Carefully add shrimp, several pieces at a time, to hot oil. Fry 3 minutes or until golden brown, turning once. Drain on paper towels.
• 6. Repeat with remaining shrimp, coconut and batter. Add remaining coconut to the large plate as needed. (Coconut is added to plate as needed so the batter doesn't make it clump up.)
• 7. For the Dipping Sauce, heat marmalade (or preserves), orange juice and soy sauce until preserves are melted and it's heated through, about 3 minutes. Serve with Tempura Coconut Shrimp.

SHRIMP TEMPURA

Steps:

• To make tempura, mix flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and curry powder in a bowl. Dredge the shrimp in this dry mix, shaking any excess back into the bowl, and add seltzer to the tempura in a stream while whisking constantly to make it into batter. Season with salt and pepper.
• Heat canola oil to 375 degrees F in a deep-fryer, or according to the manufacturer's instructions for similar foods.
• Thread the dusted shrimp onto skewers, approximately 4 to a skewer. Pour the tempura batter into a glass pie plate, dip each skewer of shrimp into the tempura batter, and add to the deep- fryer basket. Fry until golden brown. Drain on paper toweling and serve warm.

TOASTED COCONUT TEMPURA SHRIMP WITH TROPICAL SLAW, LIME RICE & SWEET 'N' SPICY SAUCE

Steps:

• • In a medium pot, combine rice, 1¼ cups water (2¼ cups for 4 servings), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
• • Meanwhile, wash and dry produce. • Roughly chop cilantro. Drain pineapple over a small bowl, reserving juice. Zest and halve lime (for 4 servings, zest one lime and halve both). • In a medium bowl, toss together cabbage, cilantro, pineapple, mayonnaise, juice from half the lime, half the pineapple juice, and ½ tsp sugar (1 tsp for 4). Season with salt and pepper. Add cashews.
• • To bowl with reserved pineapple juice, stir in jam, a squeeze of lime juice, and Sriracha to taste. Set aside. • Heat a large, heavy-bottomed (preferably nonstick), pan over medium heat. Add coconut and ½ tsp sugar (1 tsp for 4 servings); cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 1-2 minutes. • Turn off heat; transfer to a second small bowl. Wipe out pan.
• • Rinse shrimp* under cold water, then pat dry with paper towels. Season with salt. • In a large bowl, combine tempura mix, half the toasted coconut, ½ tsp salt (1 tsp for 4 servings), and 1⁄3 cup cold water (2⁄3 cup for 4). (TIP: If mixture is too thick, add more water 1 TBSP at a time until it reaches a pancake-batter-like consistency.) • Heat a ¼-inch layer of oil in pan used for coconut over medium-high heat. Stir shrimp into batter until fully coated. • Line a plate with paper towels and set aside.
• • Once oil is hot enough that a drop of batter sizzles when added to the pan, add coated shrimp in a single layer. Cook in batches until golden brown and cooked through, 2-3 minutes on the first side and 1-2 minutes on the second side. (TIP: Add more oil as needed between batches, allowing it time to heat back up before frying more shrimp.) • Using a slotted spoon, transfer shrimp to paper-towel-lined plate. Immediately season with salt and pepper.
• • Fluff rice with a fork; stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) and lime zest to taste. Season with salt. • Divide rice, shrimp, and slaw between plates. Sprinkle shrimp and rice with remaining toasted coconut. Drizzle shrimp with sauce (or serve on the side for dipping).
