Carrot Tops and Shrimp Kakiage Fritters

I remembered how delicious the carrot leaf fritters I had a long time ago were. Plus, living on a farm, we get tons of carrot tops.
Wash the carrot leaves carefully, and then dry them off. I used easy-to-use tempura flour. For 8 fritters. Recipe by Kourin

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Rip the leaves off the carrot tops, removing the thick stems.
- 2
Peel and de-vein the shrimp, and cut into 1.5 cm pieces. Pat dry with paper towels.
- 3
Put the leaves and shrimp in a bowl, and sprinkle evenly with katakuriko.
- 4
Mix the batter together and leave for 2 to 3 minutes. It should feel silky enough that it can fall off a spoon in a smooth stream.
- 5
Add the batter to the mixture from Step 3, and mix evenly.
- 6
Fill a large pan about 1/3 full with oil. Add spoonfuls of the combined ingredients to the oil, so that 1/3 of each fritter sticks out from the surface of the oil.
- 7
When the fritters are a bit fried, turn them over and poke a bit with cooking chopsticks. Turn again and poke several times again, to make them very crispy.

They will turn into cute round morsels. These are delicious as is, but you can eat them with ketchup or tempura dipping sauce if you like . For 2-4 servings. Recipe by caramel-cookie cookpad.japan -
