Fritters

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Fritters

    In a large bowl, combine the shrimp, flour, cornstarch, baking powder, beaten egg, green onions, shaved asparagus, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  3. 3

    Fry the Fritters

    Drop spoonfuls of the shrimp mixture into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Make the Aioli

    In a bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, cilantro, lime juice, garlic, and salt to taste until smooth.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the fritters hot with the cilantro-lime aioli on the side.
