To Prepare Corn Flour:
Mix all ingredients together in a freezer bag, shake well
Dip shrimp in the corn flour, coat well, and place into hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
I would do this in 2-3 batches.
Cook shrimp for 2 minutes on each side.
Drain on paper napkin.
Squeeze a little lemon juice on hot shrimp if desired. Serve!
Tip for crispy chicken or shrimp or anything. Gluten free flour.
Makes everything crispier.
