adequate amount of green onion

1/4 cup mirin

1/2 teaspoon curry powder

3 tablespoons panko

3 eggs

a pinch of salt

a pinch of pepper

adequate amount of vegetable oil

Recipe

Mix 1/4 cup mirin with 1/2 teaspoon curry powder, then soak the thawed shrimp tails to remove fishy odor.
Place the shrimp on a kitchen towel to gently pat dry, then sprinkle with a little salt and pepper for seasoning.
Thread the cleaned skewers alternately with green onion bottoms and shrimp tail ends, arranging five pieces per skewer at even lengths.
Whisk 2 eggs with 1 additional yolk and a pinch of salt until smooth to make the egg wash.
Lightly coat the skewers with panko for a first layer of coating.
Place the egg-coated skewers in a pan with oil and cook over medium-low heat, turning frequently, until golden brown on both sides.

Marinate shrimp in a mixture of mirin and curry powder to eliminate fishy smell, then season with salt and pepper.
Alternate green onion and shrimp on skewers, then lightly coat with panko.
Dip in egg wash with added yolk and pan-fry on both sides until golden brown.

Cooking tips

Adding an extra yolk to the egg wash makes the fritters much more golden and visually appealing.
Soak skewers in vinegar water for 30 minutes before use for better hygiene.
Avoid high heat—too strong a flame causes the egg coating to burn easily; cook slowly over medium-low heat.
