INSTRUCTIONS
BUFFALO SAUCE
- Melt the Kelapo coconut oil over medium heat, allow to get slightly hot
- add hot sauce and honey, using a wire whisk combine the ingredients until all of the coconut oil has been absorbed and the sauce has thickened some.
- Remove the sauce from the heat and set aside
- Fried Shrimp
- Shrimp should be deveined, rinsed and patted dry with paper towels.
- Whip eggs and milk together to make an egg wash
- Set up a bowl with your egg wash and one with the cracker crumbs
- place shrimp a few at a time into the cracker crumb, then the egg wash and then back into the cracker crumbs, pressing the breading into the shrimp so it has an even coating.
- After breading all of the shrimp, place them into the freezer for 15-20 minutes. (this will make the frying process much easier)
- When shrimp are partially frozen, set up your frying pan
- Place 1/2 cup of coconut oil into the frying pan and allow it to heat up over medium high heat
- When the oil is hot, place half the shrimp into the pan and fry on each side until you have a nice golden brown color then turn them over and cook the other side. (You may also stand the shrimp up to cook the underside)
- If you’re not sure that they shrimp are completely cooked place them into a 350 degree oven for 7 minutes.
ASSEMBLY
- Slice your long roll almost all the way through and remove some of the inside. Cut the roll into two 6 inches pieces.(15 cm each)
- Place half the arugula on the roll.
- Dip fried shrimp into the buffalo sauce, just long enough to coat
- Place buffalo shrimp onto of arugula, and top with gorgonzola crumbles.
- Drizzle extra sauce over the finished sandwich if you like it extra messy and delicious!
- Serve immediately
