Salt and Pepper Shrimp David

My cousin David is a fantastic cook! When he comes to visit, he's in the kitchen. This dish was a great appetizer to the coconut fish curry he makes.

1 lb large raw shrimp peeled.
oil for frying
2 eggs beaten
2 cups cornstarch
1 cup club soda

salt and pepper

Heat oil and in a bowl mix cornstarch and soda. Batter should be thick. Dip shrimp in batter and fry in oil till golden. When all shrimp have been fried season with salt and pepper generously. Serve with the sauce below on the side.

Garlic Sauce
1 cup ketchup
a few dashes soy sauce
1 head garlic finely chopped
1 serrano chili finely chopped(optional)

Mix all ingredients and heat slowly till warm.
