Maine fried shrimp rolls (on homemade butter-toasted Japanese milk bread)

Ingredients

  • Shrimp (small pink Canadian shrimp)
  • Flour, for coating shrimp (I used cassava to make them gf)
  • Grapeseed oil 
  • Tartar house
  • Lettuce
  • Butter 
  • Rolls
  • Maldon salt for finishing
  • Garnish with chips and a pickle

Instructions 

  • Prepare frying oil by filling 2 inches high on a heavy bottomed pan, such as cast iron.  Use Grapeseed oil or another neutral flavored vegetable oil.
  • Wash and drain shrimp, then pat some of the moisture off with a paper towel. Toss in flour and fry in small batches until golden brown(2-4 mins). Use a slotted spoon or spider to remove and place on a plate lined with paper towels to soak up excess oil.
  • Butter both sides of the rolls and toast each side until golden brown in a skillet. 
  • Generously slather tartar sauce on the inside of the roll and line with lettuce.  Fill the center with the fried shrimp.
  • Finish with flaky salt, a slice of lemon, pickle and chips.
