• 2 g of ginger powder
• 2,5 g of garlic powder
• 15-20 ml of oyster soy sauce
• About 400 ml of canola oil

These are what you do:

• Place the shrimp a bowl. Pour oyster soy sauce, add paprika, garlic, and ginger. Mix them well and let it sit for about 10-15 minutes then mix them again

• Prepare another bowl, add potato starch, and place the seasoned shrimp here. Mix them. I use my hand to mix them. Why potato starch? Because it is gluten-free flour and absorbs the water that comes out from the shrimp. As a result, the tempura shrimp becomes crispy

• Wait for a few seconds, then fry the shrimp until golden brown and turn off the stove
