Directions for Preparing Fried Shrimp Sandwich
- 1
Prepare the Tempura Batter
In a large bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, cayenne pepper, and salt. Gradually whisk in the cold water until the batter is smooth and slightly thick.

Heat the Oil
In a deep skillet or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

Batter the Shrimp
Dip each shrimp into the tempura batter, ensuring they are well-coated.

Fry the Shrimp
Carefully lower the battered shrimp into the hot oil in batches. Fry for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

Prepare the Sandwich
Toast the brioche buns if desired. Place fried shrimp on the bottom half of each bun, drizzle with sesame ginger aioli (see below for the aioli recipe), and top with sliced green onions. Place the top half of the bun on each sandwich.
