All these ingredients are mixed in a subtle way to get the required batter which is then poured over the shrimp. This makes the shrimp more crispy, yummy, and flavorful and you can never resist such deliciously made seafood.

Preparing the shrimp

The shrimp is firstly prepared and seasoned and then fried in hot oil to make it crispy. Frying is done only for a few minutes and you get a good textured brown crispy shrimp. Set it aside and you must drain the excess oil. Paper towels are usually used for this purpose.

Making the Coconut Sauce
