Honey Tips

Honey Is Magic

In the days before biology and botany were understood, people thought it was a special kind of magic that turned flower nectar into honey.

Directions

Place enough vegetable oil in a frying pan to cover bottom. Dip shrimp first in the seasoning mixture, then the batter, and the coconut. Once oil is hot add shrimp and brown on each side. (Only a couple seconds per side.) Drain shrimp on paper towels then place in warm oven until all shrimp are cooked. Serve with dipping sauce.
Serves: 4-6.
