Shut heat off of wok, allow oil to cool 5 minutes before turning heat on again. Retest oil with bread crust to see if it is of proper temperature. 3. When oil is ready for deep frying, take 2 teaspoons, dip into

shrimp mixture and form a 1 diameter ball. Drop ball into hot oil Place about 8 balls into the hot oil. Allow each ball to deep fry 3 minutes. Turn balls so that each will fry to a golden brown color. Remove balls to paper toweling to drain excess oil from them.
