Fritters
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, SIDS SALT & PEPPER, SIDS CRAZY LEMON and spices. Add the egg and water. Add the shrimp, chopped spring onions and garlic. Mix until the batter is smooth.
Preheat the oil in a deep fryer to 180°C. Line a baking tray with paper towels.
Using a 1 tbsp (15 ml) ice cream scoop, drop a few balls of batter at a time in the hot oil. Watch out for splattering.
Cook for 4 minutes until golden, turning halfway through. Drain on the paper towel. Cool for 5 minutes.
On a serving dish, arrange the hot fritters over a smear of the lime mayonnaise. Garnish with the julienne of spring onions. Sprinkle with paprika, if desired.
