 Directions

Try the batter with mussels and oysters as well.

After sifting the flour well, combine it with the other dry ingredients.
Gradually add the beer, stirring well with a wire whisk. The consistency of
the batter should be that of rather thin pancake batter. Chill for 5-10
minutes.

Shell and devein the shrimp. With a sharp knife, cut the back nearly in
half to form into a fantail shape. Sprinkle with fresh lemon juice and a
little salt. Holding the shrimp by their tails, dip them into the flour
first and then into the beer batter. Deep-fry in vegetable oil at 350
degrees. Be careful to place the shrimp one at a time into the oil so that
the do not stick together. Fry until crisp and golden brown, a few minutes
should do it. Serve with Orange Marmalade Sauce. Garnish the platter with
orange slices and fresh parsley. Serves 2-4, depending on appetites.
