Breaded Scampi
- sunflower oil
- 1 tablespoon Knorr Vegetable Granules
- 15/16 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary finely chopped
- 6 3/8 tablespoons plain flour
- 3 eggs beaten
- 2 packets shrimps or prawns, 2 x 200g
- basil
- 2 lemon wedges for garnish
- thyme
- Heat the oil in a deep frying pan until hot (approx. 160u0b0C if you have a frying thermometer).
- Mix the Knorr Vegetable Stock Granules, rosemary and breadcrumbs together and place on a plate. Place flour on another plate
- To make the egg wash, take a bowl and beat the eggs with a fork, making sure it's well broken down and mixed together.
- Dust the shrimps in the flour and dust off the excess between your hands. Dip them into the bowl of egg wash and finally into the breadcrumbs (just a light dusting). Now place them on a plate until you're ready to cook.
- Once all your shrimps are ready, add them to the hot oil and cook for about 20-30 seconds, turning constantly until golden brown. (I turn the gas off for the last 15 seconds.)
- Remove the shrimps and place on kitchen paper to drain off excess oil.
- Serve in a bowl (or a basket if you prefer). Garnish with lemon wedges and maybe some fresh herbs fried for a few seconds in the oil.
