Instructions
- Beat flour, beer, egg, and salt together in a bowl with an electric mixer on low speed until batter is smooth. Spread coconut flakes in a shallow dish.
- Dip shrimp into beer batter; lift up so excess batter drips back in the bowl. Press into coconut flakes until completely coated. Place shrimp, unstacked, onto a plate. Repeat with remaining shrimp.
- Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking, 3 to 4 minutes. Lower about ⅓ shrimp carefully into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack set over paper towels to drain. Repeat with remaining shrimp.
