*1 1⁄2 lbs shrimp, peeled & de-veined *1⁄2 oil *1 egg *1 cup flower *1⁄2 cup milk *3⁄4 teaspoon seasoning salt *1⁄4 teaspoon salt *Coconut oil for frying
- Directions
1) Preheat oil to 350 degrees. 2) Combine 1/2 cup oil and egg; beat well. 3) Add remaining ingredients except oil for frying and stir until well blended. 4) Dip shrimp into batter to coat. 5) Drop shrimp into hot oil and fry for 30-60 seconds or until golden brown. 6) Remove with slotted spoon; drain on paper towel.
Add a 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder to batter to make a much lighter crust, or use beer instead of milk for a barley flavor.
Ben's Famous Pan Of The Cake
- Semi-Instant Pancake Mix

- 6 cups (794 grams) all-purpose flour - 2 tablespoons (28 grams) sugar - 1 tablespoon kosher salt - 1 tablespoon baking powder (be precise: check the expiration date) - 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda (be precise: check the expiration date)

- Semi-Instant Pancakes
Ingredients
- 283 grams (2 Cups leveled) semi-instant pancake mix from above - 2 large eggs, separated, at room temperature - 2 cups low-fat buttermilk, at room temperature - 4 tablespoons (57 grams) unsalted butter, melted and cooled - 1 cup (227 grams) fresh fruit, such as blueberries, optional
Directions
1) Heat an electric griddle to 350ºF or set a heavy skillet or griddle over medium heat. 2) Heat oven to the lowest possible temperate, not more than 200ºF. 3) Place the pancake mix in a large mixing bowl. 4) In a second bowl, whisk together the egg whites and buttermilk. 5) Whisk the egg yolks into the cooled melted butter. Whisk the butter mixture into the buttermilk mixture until completely incorporated. 6) Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and quickly bring together with a large whisk. I allow myself only 12 stirs, then I walk away. Yes, there will be some lumps in the batter, and that’s fine. 7) Check the griddle. When a drop of water skitters across the surface like a little hovercraft, it’s ready. Lightly grease the griddle with butter, shortening, or nonstick spray, and wipe off the excess with a paper towel. 8) Ladle 1 ounce (by volume) of batter onto the griddle. Cook until bubbles around the upside edge set, about 3 minutes. If you wish to integrate the fruit into the pancake itself, add it after the batter has been on the griddle for about 30 seconds. 9) Carefully flip with a wide spatula and cook until golden brown on the bottom, another 2 to 3 minutes. 10) Serve immediately or place on a half-sheet pan, cover with a kitchen towel, and keep warm in the oven for up to 20 minutes. Like they gonna last that long.
