DEEP-FRIED TEMPURA SHRIMP DEVILED EGGS

Servings: 12 halves

Ingredients

  • 6 eggs hard-boiled
  • 2 eggs stirred in bowl until blended
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • Kosher salt to taste
  • ¼ cup Kewpie mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons scallions white parts only
  • 1 tablespoon gochujang
  • ½ tablespoon white miso paste
  • ½ tablespoon rice vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon mirin
  • ½ teaspoon sriracha
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • For garnish: cooked bay shrimp and chopped green tops of scallions

Instructions

  • Push cooked egg yolks through a fine-mesh sieve to break up, then combine in a food processor with scallion whites, gochujang, miso paste, rice vinegar, mirin, and sriracha. Process ingredients until smooth. Place filling in a piping bag and reserve in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
  • While filling chills, make a standard breading station of all-purpose flour, blended eggs, and panko breadcrumbs that have been lightly seasoned with kosher salt. Dredge hard-boiled egg white halves in flour, then in egg mixture, then in panko breadcrumbs to coat.
  • Heat vegetable oil to 375 degrees F, then carefully drop breaded egg whites into oil. Fry for 3 to 4 minutes until golden brown. Once fried, drain egg whites on a tray lined with paper towels. Pipe filling into the fried egg whites and garnish with cooked bay shrimp and chopped green scallion tops.
