Ingredients

2 cups unsifted flour
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
2 eggs
12 ounces pale ale beer, seltzer water or plain water
Panko bread crumbs optional

Instructions

In bowl, fold together flour, salt, eggs and beer. It’s OK to have lumps. Add 1 cup of ice to the batter. Fold gently.
Set your shrimp or veggies into the batter and coat everything but the tail. Shake off the excess, and dip into a bed of panko bread crumbs (if desired).
Place coated shrimp or veggies into 375 F deep fryer for 1-2 minutes minutes at the most, or until golden brown.
Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
