1
Pour oil in a medium-sized saucepan and heat on medium high until it reaches 360 degrees F. An oil thermometer works wonderfully here!
2
Mix together chili sauce and preserves and microwave for 30 seconds.
3
Add the cilantro, mix and set aside.
4
Mix together flour, baking powder, beer, coconut milk, sugar, and spices.
5
Pour your shredded coconut in a separate shallow bowl.
6
Once oil reaches temperature, dredge 1 shrimp into the batter, and then into the shredded coconut, pressing the coconut into the batter.
7
Carefully, drop into the oil and fry for 3 to 4 minutes.
8
With a metal slotted spoon, carefully remove the shrimp and place them on a plate lined with a paper towel.
9
I did 3 shrimp at a time to not overcrowd the pan and they all came out perfect.
10
Serve with the sweet chili and citrus sauce and enjoy!
