Method

Season shrimp with all the required ingredients and let marinate for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, mix the Chief Brand Phulorie batter with required ingredients. Add the enough water to achieve a similar texture of pancake batter.

Heat enough oil, about 3 cups over medium heat in a shallow pan.
When oil is at 350 degrees temperature, holding shrimp by the tail, dip shrimp into phulorie batter to coat evenly, allow excess to drip off and place in hot oil. Deep fry for 1 ½ minutes until golden brown.
Remove and let drain on paper towel. 
Serve with Chief Brand tamarind chutney from the jar.
