Holding shrimp by their tails,dredge each shrimp in flour and shake off excess.Dip flour coated shrimp into egg batter and allow excess to drip off.Roll shrimp in coconut and turn to coat both sides (press coconut onto shrimp to make it stick).

Baking the shrimp instead of deep frying them in oil reduces calories.
