Instructions
- Beat the egg white and set aside.
- Mix the whole egg with a whisk in a separate bowl.
- Add in olive oil, salt, cayenne powder, and almond flour to the whole egg bowl.
- Stir together, and then fold in the beaten egg white.
- Set this batter aside.
- Fill a shallow wide pan with olive oil until it’s about ½-¾ inch (1.3-2 cm) deep.
- Set the burner on medium, and when it is ready, drop in a few drops of water to test – if it sizzles it is ready for the shrimp.
- Dredge the shrimp in the prepared batter.
- Gently drop into the hot oil in pan, and allow to fry for 2-3 minutes on either side, or until the battered shrimp is cooked and golden-brown.
- Remove immediately and allow to cool before eating.
