Easy Nilasing Na Hipon Recipe
Nilasing na hipon (drunken shrimp), is a Filipino dish. It consists of whole unshelled shrimp marinated in alcohol and various spices. It is usually coated in batter, and then deep-fried. It is usually dipped in a vinegar-based sauce. The alcohol used is rice wine. Modern versions can use other types of alcohol, like gin, beer, or white wine.
The dish is anglicized as drunken shrimp or crispy fried drunken shrimp. It is not related to the Chinese dish of the same name which uses raw (usually live) or boiled shrimp and is not battered.
