Directions
Wash and dry shrimp and set aside.
Beat eggs, honey, cayenne pepper, and hot sauce together.
When well beaten, pour into a shallow bowl.
Combine flour, cornstarch and curry powder in a shallow bowl.
Then, combine bread crumbs, coconut, and orange zest in a third bowl.
Dip each shrimp into egg mixture, then the flour mixture.
Again dip into the egg mixture and finally in the coconut bread crumbs.
Set aside.
Heat oil to 325 degrees in a deep fry pan over medium high heat.
When temperature is reached, add coconut shrimp a few at a time and fry for about 3 minutes or until golden.
Drain on paper towels. Serve hot with calypso punch relish.
