Batter fried shrimp Preparation:
Preheat oil to 350 degrees. Combine ½ cup oil and egg; beat well. Add remaining ingredients except oil for frying and stir until well blended.
Dip shrimp into batter to coat. Drop shrimp into hot oil and fry for 30-60 seconds or until golden brown. Remove with slotted spoon; drain on paper towel.
Chef's Tip:
Add a ½ tsp. of baking powder to batter to make a much lighter crust, or use beer instead of milk for a barley flavor.

Light lager, dark or amber beer
