Spoon in 2 tablespoons fritter mix and fry fritters three at a time until batter is finished (golden brown). Place on wire rack and finish aioli and shrimp preparation.

Puree eggs and garlic in food processor until smooth - about 20 seconds. Slowly drizzle in oil while continuously running processor until mixture is thick and smooth - about 30 seconds. Add lemon juice and mix 5 seconds. Scrape sides of bowl with rubber spatula so all ingredients are incorporated. Mix 5 seconds more. Scrape into bowl and refrigerate. You can add herbs to customize if you like.

To plate:
With a rubber spatula, paint bottom of 2 large platters with a 1/2 cup aioli on each. Top each platter with 1/2 of the fritters and garnish with hot shrimp.
