Step 1

Peel and devein the shrimp, but leave the tails on for easy handling. Pat them dry with paper towels. Make a few small slits along the underside of each shrimp to straighten it.

Step 2

Place the prepared shrimp in a bowl. Season with salt, white pepper, garlic powder, and a splash of sesame oil. Mix well and let marinate for 10–15 minutes so they soak up all that flavour.

Step 3

Mix plain flour with a water to make a thick flour glue. Cut spring roll wrappers into triangles or halves. Place a shrimp near the short edge with the tail sticking out. Roll tightly and seal the end with flour glue.

Step 4

Heat neutral oil to 175-180°C (350°F). Fry the wrapped shrimp in batches for 2–3 minutes until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels or wrire rack to remove excess oil.
