1
Prepare the Mango Salsa
In a bowl, combine diced mango, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and jalapeño if using. Mix well and set aside.
2
Make the Curry Butter
In a small bowl, mix softened butter, curry powder, minced garlic, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
3
Prepare Plantain Coating
In a food processor, pulse the sliced plantains until coarse crumbs form. Season with salt and pepper.
4
Coat the Shrimp
Dip each shrimp in the beaten egg, then coat with the plantain crumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
5
Fry the Shrimp
In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Fry the coated shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden and cooked through. Remove and drain on a paper towel.
6
Serve
Plate the shrimp, drizzle with curry butter, and top with mango salsa. Enjoy!
