Salt and Pepper Shrimp

Recipe courtesy of Donna Hay

1/2 teaspoon Five Spice Powder
2 tablespoons fine sea salt
4 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
vegetable oil
approximately 1 lb raw shrimp, peeled, tails intact
baguette

Place the five-spice powder in a bowl with the sea salt and ground black pepper. Mix together. Add the shrimp and toss to coat thoroughly. Heat vegetable oil in a saucepan. When hot, add the shrimp in batches and fry until just changed in color. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve with baguette for mopping up the sauce.

Sweetnicks’ Notes: Love the saltiness of this one. Make sure you have bread for mopping up the delicious sauce.
