    Recipe Introduction


    Joe Broussarde

    List of Ingredients




    2 lbs. small shrimp
    2 eggs
    1 cup dry white wine
    1/2 cup fine cornmeal
    1/2 cup flour
    1 Tbsp fresh chives
    1 garlic clove, minced
    1/2 tsp thyme
    1/4 tsp salt
    1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
    1/4 tsp ground black pepper
    Oil for deep frying

    Recipe



    Rinse the shrimp in cold water. Drain well and set aside in a cool place until needed.


    Using a fork, whisk together the eggs and dry white wine in a small bowl, then set aside in a cool place.


    In a mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, chives, garlic, thyme, salt, cayenne and black pepper. Gradually whisk in the egg mixture, blending well. Cover the batter and let stand for about 1 hour at room temperature.


    Heat 2 to 3 inches of oil in a large frying pan or deep-fryer to 375 degrees. Dip the shrimp into the batter and fry in small batches for 2 to 3 minutes, turning to color evenly until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

    Serve hot with your favorite sauce for dipping.
