1
Prepare the Shrimp
In a bowl, season the shrimp with salt and black pepper. Set aside.
2
Make the Tempura Batter
In a separate bowl, whisk together the tempura batter mix and ice water until just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are fine.
3
Heat the Oil
In a deep skillet or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
4
Fry the Shrimp
Dip each shrimp into the tempura batter, allowing excess batter to drip off. Carefully place the battered shrimp into the hot oil and fry in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
5
Prepare the Sauce
In a bowl, combine the Japanese mayo and tobiko, mixing until well incorporated.
6
Serve
Toss the fried shrimp in the mayo-tobiko mixture or drizzle it on top. Serve immediately.
