Preparation

Step 1

In a medium bowl, stir together dipping sauce ingredients. Set aside.

Place the shrimp in a separate bowl and season with salt and pepper. In a third bowl, stir together the flour, ½ cup cornstarch, garlic powder, curry powder, eggs, and a little more salt and pepper. Whisk together and add club soda until it is the consistency of pancake batter.

Heat the oil in a deep-fryer or deep skillet to 375°. Toss shrimp in the remaining ½ cup cornstarch, then into the batter, and finally into the Rice Krispies to coat. Fry a few at a time until golden brown. This should take no longer than 3-5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain onto paper towels before serving with dipping sauce.
