In a bowl, beat the egg with a pinch of salt. In a plate, pour the flour; in another, pour the breadcrumbs and add the curry and dessicated coconut.
Coat the shrimp one by one, first in flour, then in the egg, and finally in the breadcrumb mixture.
Place the shrimp in the air fryer basket lined with parchment paper.
Drizzle a little extra virgin olive oil and cook at 356°F for 10 minutes or until golden.
Serve the shrimp with a sauce of your choice. Enjoy your meal!
