These are good! Slightly different recipe than most, makes a thick, crunchy breading...
I used 2lbs of large shrimp, I butterflied them and left the tails on.
Take 4 cups of water and 1.5 cups of cornstarch and whisk it together...the cornstarch can be like mixing mortar with a whisk, so I advise mixing the cornstarch into the water a little at a time. Then whisk in 2 eggs. The wash will be foamy.
Dip the shrimp into the egg wash and then into regular breadcrumbs.
Then whisk the egg wash again and dip the breaded shrimp back in, then this time I breaded them with Panko.
I deep fried them in 360° oil for about 5 minutes, to get the breading crispy and to get the golden brown color. The shrimp didn't get rubbery or hard at all, they were great!
