To all shrimp-lovers, this dish will surely be your favorite. I am a big shrimp fanatic. Every time I cook this dish, many would always ask for more. For this recipe we will be needing the following ingredients for cooking and these are:

1 kilo large shrimps
1 tablespoon calamansi juice or lemon juice
salt and pepper
3 tablespoons flour
1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup breadcrumbs
cooking oil

For the tartar sauce, we will be needing the following:

3 hard-boiled eggs, mashed
2 tablespoons pickle relish
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 piece red bell pepper, finely chopped
salt and pepper

Having all the ingredients only means one thing, we are ready for cooking. Shell and devein shrimps. Remove head, leave tail intact. wash and drain. Marinate shrimps with calamansi juice, salt and pepper mixture for 10 minutes or more. Coat shrimps with flour, dip in egg, then in breadcrumbs. Deep fry until golden brown. Serve with tartar sauce. To make the dish more elegant looking, it would be best to garnish it with fresh green leafy vegetables. By just writning about this dish, I am already hungry again.
