Directions
- Remove the shells from the shrimp, keeping the tails attached. Make 4 cuts on each shrimp, then flatten them out to open the cuts. Cut the nori into strips, wrap one around each tail, and secure it with a little water. ≈ 8 min
- Lightly dust the shrimp with flour, but do not coat the tail or the algae. Mix the water, tempura flour, and egg yolks, then use immediately: the batter should remain lumpy. ≈ 4 min
- Heat oil in a deep frying pan. Dip each shrimp in the batter, ensuring the tail and algae remain exposed, then quickly drop it into the boiling oil. Remove it as soon as it is golden brown, drain on paper towels, and serve immediately.
